RTE star Claire Byrne has given a candid interview on her decision to quit her RTE TV show, revealing that the national broadcaster wasn't able to accommodate her schedule.
The current affairs show Claire Byrne Live came to an end this year, with the host saying she decided to step away from the TV gig to focus on her radio show and to spend more time with her three children. Claire spoke to the Sunday Independent this weekend saying her husband Gerry helped guide her to make the decision.
"My husband said very little about it. But he did say this one thing: 'I don’t mind if you do 57 programmes a week, it’s entirely up to you. But we, here at home, have to write you off on a Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, and then you are back with us on a Wednesday. But, whatever makes you happy, go and do it.’"
