Funeral services for the Irish fashion designer found mysteriously dead aboard a boat at the upscale Montauk Yacht Club earlier this month will be held Wednesday in her hometown in Ireland.
Martha Nolan-O’Slatarra, 33, will be remembered at a service at 10 a.m. at the Cathedral of the Assumption in the tiny Irish town of Carlow, followed by burial at the local St. Mary’s Cemetery, the Irish Independent reported.
The Irish beauty left Carlow — about 50 miles from Dublin — for the Big Apple in 2018 and initially worked as a bottle service girl in SoHo before launching a successful career as a designer.
In New York, she co-founded East x East, a swimwear designer, and the fashion accessories company, Duper — which were successful enough to allow her to summer in the Hamptons.
On Aug. 5, Suffolk County police responded to a 911 call at the ritzy Montauk club on Long Island and found Nolan-O’Slatarra unresponsive on a boat named “Ripple,” one of two belonging to insurance mogul Christopher Durnan, 60.
Cops revealed that Nolan-O’Slatarra’s body did not show evidence of violence, and her death is now being eyed as a possible accidental drug overdose, sources have said — although her family has demanded further investigation.
Studious and driven to succeed, the late designer earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration and management from University College in Dublin and went on to earn a master’s degree in digital marketing at the UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate School of Business, also in Dublin, in 2014.
“I always knew I wanted to be successful, that I was money-driven, business-driven, and that fashion is a tough industry and it would be a slow road,” she told the Independent last year.
Her obituary said, “She will be sadly missed by her loving mother and her mother’s partner Patrick, sister, aunts, uncles, partner, her father Seamus and her siblings, her grandfather Jimmy Slattery, extended family, relatives and her large circle of friends in Ireland and the US.”
