"D'fhill sí le carr agus buachaill nua."
Tried to post this on the question, but it froze on me.
The "agus buachaill nua" gets translated as "and a new boyfriend", but could this phrase be understood as "with a new boy", as in a baby boy? Would a native speaker always understand this as "she came back with a lover", or could it mean she came back with the result of one instead?

Buachaill wouldn’t be used to refer to a baby. It could refer to an older child, which in the context of this sentence might refer to one who was recently adopted.
