Co Tyrone social media star Caroline O’Neill, also known as Digg Mama, is set to take to the airwaves as a presenter on Q Radio for a week.
Caroline will take over from regular mid morning host Yazz from Monday February 20 while she takes to the slopes for the station’s annual ski trip.
With over 200,000 followers on her social media platforms, Caroline posts about lifestyle, business and family life as well as organising events and charity fundraisers.

She told Belfast Live it will be something new for her and there may be some nerves with her live broadcasting debut.
“I’m a bit nervous because I’ve never done the radio before, when you do social media it’s very rare that it’s live,” Caroline said.
“It’s a new challenge to be able to do that for three hours solid but I am relishing the challenge and looking forward to the craic.
“A lot of people that would follow me when we announced it last night are looking forward to it and have been sending in requests and having the banter. It’ll be light-hearted and good fun and something we all really need at the minute."
As for whether it is something she would like to do full-time in the future, the mum-of-three says she is going to take it one step at a time.
Caroline’s son Darragh and daughter Tess have both gone viral with their videos of their busy lifestyle and a hilarious impression of their grandmother, and she says the kids are looking forward to hearing her on the radio.
“I’ll see how it goes next week, it’s definitely right up my street. I’m a very social person and love the drama and the storytelling and the buzz,” she said.
“We’ll see how it goes and how the listeners react. Full-time I don’t know but we’ll see what the reaction is and take it from there.
“The kids are off on half term at the start of next week so they’ll be able to tune in and hear me, they’re excited to hear their mummy on the radio and they’re going to be cheering me on.”
