Heather Humphreys (born 14 May 1963) is an Irish Fine Gael politician who has served in various cabinet positions since 2014, currently serving as Minister for Rural and Community Development and Minister for Social Protection since June 2020.
Humphreys was born in the village of Drum, County Monaghan, in 1963.
Following the abolition of the dual mandate in 2003, Humphreys was co-opted onto Monaghan County Council in succession to Seymour Crawford.
She was elected in her own right at the 2004 local elections and once again following the 2009 local elections.
She was elected as Mayor of Monaghan County in 2009.

After an initial period on the backbenches, in a cabinet reshuffle in July 2014, Humphreys was appointed Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
After just a few months in the position she became embroiled in controversy over her appointment of John McNulty to the board of the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA) on 12 September 2014 just before his nomination for a Seanad by-election to the Cultural and Educational Panel.
Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin said at the "very basic level, she should say what officials in Fine Gael asked her to appoint Mr McNulty to the board of Imma".
Although Humphreys said John Nulty was selected "on merit", she later admitted she regretted the decision.
In the preparations of the 2016 Easter Rising centenary celebrations, she said: Given my background as a Protestant and an Ulsterwoman who is a proud Irish republican, I appreciate the need to respect the differing traditions on this island.
In March 2016, Humphreys approved a decision to demolish the buildings 13–19 on Moore Street as she deemed them to not be of "historical importance".
Following the formation of a Fine Gael minority government in May 2016, she was appointed to the expanded position of Minister for Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs.
