Actor Colin Farrell is all praise for Ireland after it became the world's first country to legalise same-sex marriage by a popular vote.

"Today Ireland has opened up her heart in a way that the whole world will feel.

"How we have changed our fortune in 24 hours, how we have lit the way, how we have guaranteed a brighter and more loving future for all who call this beautiful land home. Bravo citizens of Ireland," said the Irish actor.

In November, Farrell wrote a letter in the Sunday World calling for Ireland voters to support gay rights.
