Ryan Tubridy took a road trip to Cork to see his "best friend" Adam King after "nearly two years" of waiting.
The pair met back on the Late Late Toy Show in 2020 when little Adam, who has osteogenesis imperfecta, offered Ryan a virtual hug during the Covid pandemic. Two years later, the RTE host travelled from Dublin to spend a day with his dear friend.
Ryan said: "We have landed in Cork, and nearly two years ago I promised I would visit a little friend of mine and I couldn't for ages and ages, and it's going to happen today." He then posted a video of him scooping the eight-year-old up into his arms as his family stood outside their home to greet him. He said: "It took two years but we got there, coffee, cake and a hug from Adam."
