""People say it's like a cliche lesbian thing, where you immediately move in, so we held on as long as we could. But I was like, I really think I should move in now. I tried to make it as non-cliche as possible, but I just love her. So at the start of [last] year, I moved in with her and it's been the craziest year of my life.""
"'I had moved because I just had hit my peak stimulation and I was just at a real kind of stopping point in my life and my sister was like, come live with me,' she explained, describing how her sister has 'got walks on her doorstep' and they 'could just go out every morning, whenever we wanted'. 'I love my sister so much. She is just my safety net, my best friend. She's just everything,' the actor continued."
"Moving in together quite soon into a relationship, just weeks or maybe even days, is a running joke in the lesbian community and is often colloquially called 'U-Hauling' - a slang term in lesbian lingo named after the American moving truck company of the same name. Doherty went on to reveal she started dating Donnelly whilst living with her older sister in West Sussex."
Erin Doherty, 33, earned acclaim for playing forensic psychologist Briony Ariston and has been in a relationship with NHS radiographer Sinead Donnelly for several months. The couple initially attempted long-distance arrangements but moved in together early because Doherty disliked saying goodbye each day. Doherty tried to avoid the quick-move stereotype yet ultimately moved in at the start of last year and described the year since as the craziest of her life. The quick move aligns with the lesbian community joke known as 'U-Hauling.' Doherty previously lived with her older sister in West Sussex and commuted to see her girlfriend in North London.
