“Mariah, are you taking the p*** or what? Have ya rang me to consult to see if I was okay with this? Have you offered me one share in the company? No, you haven’t.

“You need to earn your stripes before you call a brand Black Irish.”

He then lists all the things that make a person Irish and asks Mariah if she has had any of the same experiences.

He said, “Did you grow up listening to the Dubliners, fucking Christy Moore, Lisdoonvarna and all that sh** Lisdoon, Lisdoon, Lisdoon, Lisdoonvarna.

“Did you grow up to that? No, you f***ing didn’t.
