Erin Andrews is soaking up the Emerald Isle as she celebrates her 48th birthday—and she’s bringing fans along for the ride. The FOX Sports sideline reporter posted a series of stunning photos from Ireland on Instagram this Monday, showing off the country's lush landscapes and her own radiant smile.
“Erin, the pictures look Amazing,” one fan commented, while another wrote, “Welcome to Ireland.” A third simply said, “Happy Birthday, Erin Andrews. Enjoy your trip.” The warm reception from followers matched the beauty of the scenery, as Andrews clearly embraced the Irish spirit.
Andrews has come a long way since her early days on ESPN’s “College GameDay.” She joined FOX Sports in 2012 and quickly became the network’s top NFL sideline reporter. In recent years, she’s earned the prestigious Pat Summerall Award and Vince Lombardi’s Award of Excellence. FOX locked her up with a contract extension last offseason, ensuring she’ll remain on the No. 1 crew alongside Tom Brady and Kevin Burkhardt for the foreseeable future.
But with the 2026 NFL season still months away, Andrews decided to treat herself to a birthday getaway. Her Ireland trip comes as a welcome break from the sideline hustle, and fans are loving every snapshot.
Beyond her professional achievements, Andrews has been refreshingly open about her personal life. She and her husband, former NHL player Jarret Stoll, welcomed their first child via surrogate in June 2023. During a recent episode of her “Calm Down” podcast, Andrews revealed she’s not ready to stop there. “I know what history says. It’s not great with producing eggs and the viability of your eggs,” she said. “There’s just some (expletive) in me that I’m like, watch, watch me do it. It’s like a weird addiction I have.”
Her candidness has resonated with many fans, especially those who follow her journey on and off the field. While she’s enjoying Ireland now, it’s clear Andrews has her eyes on the future—both in the broadcast booth and at home.
