Claire Byrne has announced that she will not be the next host of the Late Late Show.
The RTE star said that while she was "flattered" to be named as the favourite to take over the coveted slot when Ryan Tubridy steps down on May 26, she will not be taking over the hot seat. She cited her young family and the fact she loves her daily radio programme as the key reasons behind her decision.
The mother-of-three said on her Instagram page: “I have a young family, a busy home life and a full-time radio job that I love, and right now, that is enough for me. While I’d never rule out other TV projects, the Late Late Show should be presented by someone who can give it the time and dedication that it deserves.”
