Dwan was surrounded with messages of support ad condolences from her famous friends, with her MobLand co-star Joanne Froggatt responding with a series of heart emojis. This Morning’s Clodagh McKenna commented, “Oh darling…. I’m so sorry May he rest in peace. Sending love xxxx,” as Irish singer-songwriter Imelda May added, “Oh darling I’m so sorry! It’s awful to lose a wonderful Dad. Sending my love.”

Liam was an amateur actor in his home town of Athlone, in County Westmeath, Ireland, according to The Irish Times. Dwan followed in her father’s footsteps, charting an acting career of her own. After making her acting debut as Agnes in an adaptation of Oliver Twist, co-starring Elijah Wood and Richard Dreyfuss, in 1997, the actress went on to land a series regular role as Princess Deirdre on Saban’s Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog, Dwan appearing in 50 episodes of the show from 1998 until 1999, per her IMDb profile. She has since gone on to star in The Big Bow Wow, Fairy City, Rock Rivals, and Top Boy, among others.

Dwan can currently be seeing portraying lawyer O’Hara Delaney in Guy Ritchie’s MobLand, which broke the record as the biggest Paramount+ global series premiere ever with 2.2 million global viewers on its March 30 premiere. Also starring Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, Paddy Considine, Lara Pulver, Mandeep Dhillon, Jasmine Jobson, Geoff Bell, Daniel Betts, Lisa Dwan, and Emily Barber, the show centers around two mob families as they clash in a war that threatens to topple empires and lives.

The series wrapped its 10-episode debut season, which is available to stream on Paramount+, earlier this month. It hasn’t yet been renewed for Season 2.
