'Based on my own personal experience, I never take the reports at face value,' he said

Ex-RTE star Sean O’Rourke has said Ryan Tubridy’s sudden departure from the Late Late Show didn’t shake RTE bosses – and he believes Patrick Kielty is not a “done deal”.

The broadcaster was forced to retire from his mid-morning Radio 1 show due to him turning 65 in 2020 but was on the cusp of returning as a contractor for different projects.But the fall out from the Golfgate scandal in the summer of 2020 meant that all plans for a return were shelved. Drawing from his own experience, he said Ryan Tubridy’s sudden announcement to leave the coveted show after 14 years wasn’t as shocking to RTE bosses compared to when Pat Kenny sensationally quit the station.
