A Dublin man who flew home to vote in the Irish same-sex marriage referendum was surprised to find his mother had redecorated his room - pride style.

Kevin Beirne, who now lives in London, joined the Twitter #HomeToVote campaign because he was worried the country would vote No to gay marriage.

When he arrived home, his mother had replaced his curtains with pride flags, and bought a rainbow bedspread. The photo of the room was retweeted thousands of times on Twitter.

Kevin, 23, who came out to his family as bisexual three years ago, said: "It was a nice little show of support from my family."

"I never that thought we would see a vote on same-sex marriage until I was maybe middle aged", he added.
