Ryan Tubridy revealed there has been heartbreak behind the scenes at RTE this week as he announced the sad passing of a Toy Show colleague.
Catherine Sorg, who lived in Skerries, Co. Dublin, but was originally from France, passed away peacefully on Monday at Beaumont Hospital surrounded by her family. A member of the design department at RTE, she has been remembered as ‘a wonderful talent’ and ‘cherished colleague’, whilst Late Late Show host Ryan, who she worked with on the annual Toy Show, said she will be sadly missed in a touching tribute.
Speaking on his RTE Radio 1 show on Tuesday morning, following a lengthy tribute to late Cervical Check campaigner Vicky Phelan, who also passed away on Monday, the presenter said: “You know somebody who works very close to the Toy Show died yesterday [Monday]. And she was a colleague of ours who got sick very quickly.
