The diary of Ryan Tubridy - Former RTÉ star takes up new columnist job with Irish paper

Former RTÉ presenter Ryan Tubridy has taken up a new job with a popular Irish newspaper.

The radio star will join the DMG Media Ireland family as a columnist for the Irish Mail on Sunday, with his first "unmissable" column set to be printed this Sunday January 14, 2024. 

Tubridy - who formerly helmed the Late Late Show - recently began a mid-morning gig on Virgin Radio in the UK which is also broadcast simultaneously on Dublin's Q102. 

He also presents a weekend show across the Wireless Ireland station network, which covers Dublin's Q102, Cork's 96FM, Live 95 in Limerick and Drogheda's LMFM. 

The presenter left his role as Late Late Show host in 2023 but continued to present his weekday radio show until contract negotiations went sour in the wake of the RTÉ payments scandal. 

He has yet to comment on his new role with the Irish Mail.
