The celeb couple sent fans wild as Catherine posted snaps from the popular course in the Kingdom.

Catherine, 53, and Michael, 78, donned their golf gear to pose alongside the statue of pro US golfer Arnold Palmer, who designed the Kerry course back in the 1980s.

Catherine posted: "When Irish eyes are smiling.

"A wee trip to the Emerald Isle to sample the links. Amazing!!!!!!"

She also shared a bird-eye view of the plush Adare Manor resort, before posing in front of the stunning Killarney lakes.

Another wrote: "You and Michael are the cutest golfing pair, Catherine, I’m so happy you two are having the time of your lives on Irish soil/courses... enjoy your little trip."

One more added: "Love playing the Tralee links!"

Catherine and Michael tied the knot back in 2000 and share two children - Dylan and Carys.

ROLE WISH

The Welsh star last year told how the biggest acting break she has always craved has proved elusive — playing James Bond.

And if that sounds an unlikely role, she has revealed that former 007 Sean Connery backed her to replace him as the all-action spy.

Talking about her ambition for the first time, she said: "I would have loved to have played Bond.

"I had such a wonderful relationship with Sean Connery — we did a movie called Entrapment years ago — and he was like my elder brother, my dad, my support.

"I really loved him.

"I am a Bond fanatic and he said to me once, ‘You would have made a great Bond, girl’. I asked, ‘A Bond girl or Bond?’

"He went, ‘Bond — girl’. I said, ‘Oh my gosh, I would have loved to have played Bond!’ But I think that time has passed."

But the star returned last year in another classic role, playing Morticia in the Netflix TV series Wednesday, a reboot of the Addams Family franchise.

Catherine said she jumped at the chance to join the new cast, which includes Jenna Ortega as Wednesday.

She said: "It was a real treat because it’s an iconic show and characters like Fester and Morticia are indelible, they’re in our subconscious.

"It’s more than pop culture, really. My niece knows The Addams Family and my grandmother, God bless her, she loved The Addams Family.

"You throw in the brilliant mind of Tim Burton and a fantastic casting and I’m just thrilled it’s going so well."
