Patrick Kielty joins The Late Late Show

OHMYGOSSIP — Patrick Kielty feels honoured to be “the next custodian” of ‘The Late Late Show’.
The 52-year-old comedian has been announced as the new host of the long-running Irish talk show, and Patrick has revealed that he’s already looking forward to the challenge.
The TV star – who has replaced Ryan Tubridy as the show’s host – said in a statement: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be the next host of ‘The Late Late Show’.
“To follow in the footsteps of Gay [Byrne], Pat [Kenny] and Ryan as the next custodian is a real honour and I can’t thank RTE enough for giving me the chance to be a part of the next chapter of such an iconic show.
“I’m also genuinely humbled to become part of Friday nights for so many Irish people, at home and around the world. I can’t wait to get started on one of the greatest jobs in television.”
Jim Jennings, RTE’s director of content, is also thrilled that Patrick has accepted the role.
Jim described Patrick – who is married to TV presenter Cat Deeley – as “one of Ireland’s finest comedians”.
He said: “Patrick Kielty is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s finest comedians, a fantastic presenter with a depth of experience, and a range of talents that will bring an exciting new dynamic to the show.
“Patrick’s personality and passion is sure to connect with audiences and I look forward to it bursting on to screens in September.
“We have very definite ideas for the show already in the works and we’ll be busy behind the scenes shaping the series for launch. We’ll be back in August to tell you all about it”.
