It appears that Lynn Hilary is leaving Celtic Woman... I was just on the Celtic Woman website and found this message.... I have had the most incredible experience with Celtic Woman. I feel so lucky to have had the privilege of being able to call myself a Celtic Woman if only for three short years. However I have grown to miss Ireland and my life there more and more, so I’ve decided to take my leave while the going is good. I will miss all my friends terribly and especially three very special ladies; Mairead Nesbitt, Chloe Agnew and Lisa Kelly, whom after the hectic year we have all had I will now always think of as “Super-Women” as opposed to Celtic Women!! I will never forget the warmth and acceptance that I experienced from them and from the fans on my arrival and on filling such big shoes. Thanks also to the fans for making this whole experience all the more colourful! I also want to take this opportunity to thank the amazing Celtic Woman team behind the scenes, they work so hard and have been integral in making Celtic Woman the fabulous success that is has been and I know will continue to be. Peace and Love, Slán go fóill Lynn xxx Here is the link..... http://www.celticwoman.com/lynns-message/ |

Oh no!!!   Wow. I'm really shocked at this one. Did not see this coming. At ALL. Holy cow... Lynn will be SERIOUSLY missed like crazy. I've never seen a Celtic Woman show without her. Meav was already gone when I became a CW fan, and as such, I've always felt more connected to Lynn than to Meav. I love her solo album so much, and she was so perfect as a CW girl. That said, I totally get it. Lynn seems like a homebody (not unlike myself) and I can definitely see her missing her life in Ireland like crazy when she's gone from it for almost the entire year. Time to move on to new things! Good luck, Lynn! |

WHAT?! I never expected this. This is, darn.... I'm really sad about this   But it's completely understandable, and Lynn deserves a little more time at home Thank you for everything Lynn. You did such a good job in filling Méav's shoes, and you will never be forgotten by anyone!! You've been a pleasure to watch and hear and a phenomenal celtic woman. Lots of love and luck to you!! |

I am absolutely shocked! I never saw this coming, and it's all the more disappointing since I never got the honor and pleasure of meeting Lynn at a meet and greet (same with Alex). Though, I'll always remember the big grins and winks she sent my way at the shows I did attend, so in a way, I did meet her. Still, it would have been an honor to tell her in person how much I appreciate her contribution to Celtic Woman, and how much I loved her harmonies and her solos.
If you ever read this, Lynn, I'd like to send you my warmest regards and admiration. It's a pity we never got to meet in person, but who knows what the future will bring? Keep singing, you Angel of the Emerald Isle!
All my love,
Taylor "Angus" Gibson

I'm surprised, but at the same time, not. I agree with the comment by Emily! that she seems more like a homebody.
While I'm sad to see you go Lynn, I wish you the best of luck in whatever path you take, and safe travels wherever life takes you. You have been inspirational to many, and loved by many more.
-Emily/Bluefire

Aww jeeez!
This really comes as a surprise, but, from the bottom of my heart, thank you Lynn.
If you're ever around my way again, I'll do my best to see you, no matter who you're with!
