Ryan Tubridy could be set to lose half of his salary after giving up the Late Late Show gig.
But the star – who is RTE’S highest paid presenter - could make up his lost earnings if he continues to work at RTE through various other TV projects. The presenter – who earns a massive €440,000 as a contractor through his company Tuttle Productions Ltd - made a shock announcement last week that he will step down as host of the coveted Friday night chat show on May 26.
Ryan confirmed he will still host his RTE Radio 1 show every morning. But an insider revealed Ryan could lose half his salary now that he has bid farewell to the show – but he could maintain the six figure sum as a contractor if he works on various different TV projects at the station.
