Violet-Anne Wynne (born 30 March 1987) is an Irish independent politician who served as a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Clare constituency from 2020 until 2024.

[6] Wynne contested the 2019 Clare County Council election, coming 8th out 9 candidates in the local electoral area of Kilrush, securing 4.2% of the first preference vote.

Following the criticisms, Wynne issued a formal apology, stating "I understand that a number of remarks I made on Facebook recently have caused offence.

Wynne alleged that she was the victim of a campaign of "psychological warfare" from members of the local party but that she did not have a problem with Sinn Féin TDs in the Dail.

In 2011, the couple decided to settle in Tullycrine near Kilrush, County Clare with their children under the Rural Settlement Scheme when Montaine developed health issues that required a slower-paced lifestyle.

[19] In 2016, housing charity Rural Resettlement Ireland obtained a court judgement for rent arrears of €12,126.40 owed by Wynne and Montaine.

[21][22] In May 2022 Wynne said she was "homeless", having relied on short-term accommodation since leaving a house rendered too small by the birth of her sixth child in February 2022.

[23] In November 2024, a court ordered Independent Wynne to pay €11,500 in compensation to Fiona Smyth, a former employee the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) found was unfairly dismissed in March 2023.

Wynne acknowledged the WRC’s decision and expressed her intention to pay but stated she lacked the funds to settle the award in full, leading Smyth to pursue enforcement proceedings through the courts.
