Where is robert heffernan from

Rob paid tribute to Marian constantly during his time on DWTS as he threw himself into his training and she kept everything ticking over at home in Cork - while travelling to watch Rob live in studio on Sunday nights. Rob was the seventh celebrity to be booted off Dancing With The Stars.

But best mate Jake Carter quickly insisted there was no cha-cha-chance that their epic bromance would end after Rob was eliminated. Rob had conceded he would be axed in a dance-off with pal Jake - but ended up battling it out against Erin McGregor. The athletic hero previously told how grief for his mum inspired his Viennese waltz during the series.

Viewers saw Rob choked with emotion after coming off the dance floor with partner Emily Parker to Perfect by Ed Sheeran. The pair scored 25 points for the moving routine and the celeb dancer revealed to the Irish Sun his late mum, Maureen had been on his mind as he had taken to the floor.

So losing her was the worst experience of my life. I remember the desolation I felt on the long flight back. And we revealed how Rob was keeping ahead of the pack over Christmas - jetting in pro partner Emily Barker for extra rehearsals while the other stars took a break over the holidays. Rob could still pull on the Irish singlet again - and has previously revealed his passion for coaching.
