Following a 17 year relationship with an electrician which ended in August 1996, Doyle had a much publicised relationship Jim McDaid (former Minister for Tourism, Sport & Recreation). She met McDaid at a function at New York in late 1997, and the relationship ended acrimoniously after about six months.
She has been in a relationship with former restaurant owner, Dan McGrattan, since the beginning of the 2000s.
In February 2012, she came fifth in a poll to find Ireland's most desirable Valetines.
