Gabrielle McFadden is an Irish Fine Gael politician who is a member of Seanad Éireann, having previously been elected as a Teachta Dála (TD) at the 2014 Longford–Westmeath by-election.
The by-election was caused by the death of her sister Nicky McFadden who was a Fine Gael politician. In December 2014 she was appointed to the Public Accounts Committee and to the Select Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality.
McFadden was a member of Westmeath County Council for the Athlone area from 2009 to 2014. She was the Mayor of Athlone from 2013 to 2014. She vacated her council seat before the Dáil by-election.
She lost her seat at the 2016 general election. She was subsequently elected to Seanad Éireann on the Cultural and Educational Panel.
