"Gene Daly sits up at the table with us as we talk about his parents' latest cookbook, The Daly Dish Air Fryer, and the whirlwind that has been the last five years of Gina and Karol's lives. Gene recently started playschool near their home in Co Meath, but he's home today, a bit under the weather, while his teenage siblings, Holly and Ben, are at school."
"It is fitting that three-year-old Gene is at the heart of a conversation that covers all the highs and lows of their recent years, which includes a miscarriage, the death of Gina's dad, struggles with body image and the all-too-common trap of taking care of everyone but yourself."
Gina and Karol Daly prepared The Daly Dish Air Fryer as their fourth cookbook after their first food diary went viral on Instagram in 2019. Their family life in Co Meath includes three-year-old Gene, who recently started playschool but was home and cheerful during the conversation, sharing toys and choosing pastries. Their household also includes teenage children Holly and Ben. The couple experienced a miscarriage and the death of Gina's father during a whirlwind five years. Gina faced weight and body-image struggles and the couple confronted the all-too-common trap of prioritizing everyone else over self-care. Their third child, born with Down syndrome, brought profound joy amid loss.
