Ryan Tubridy to step down as Late Late presenter.
Ryan Tubridy le n-éirí as mar láithreoir an Late Late.
RTÉ has announced that broadcaster Ryan Tubridy is to step down as presenter of the Late Late Show at the end of the current season.
Tá sé fógartha ag RTÉ go bhfuil an craoltóir Ryan Tubridy le n-éirí as mar láithreoir an Late Late Show ag deireadh an tséasúir reatha.
The Tipperary has been presenting the Late Late since 2009 and said today that it was a great honor for him.
Tá an Tiobradach ag cur an Late Late i láthair ó 2009 agus dúirt sé inniu gur mhór an onóir dó é.
He thanked all the staff – including producers, researchers, crew and executives – who did the hard work, as he said, to keep the show going throughout the years.
Ghabh sé buíochas leis an bhfoireann ar fad – idir léiritheoirí, thaighdeoirí, chriú agus fheidhmeannaigh – a rinne an obair chrua, mar a dúirt sé féin, leis an seó a choinneáil ag imeacht i gcaitheamh na mblianta.
He is also grateful, he said, to the viewers who are so loyal to the program.
Tá sé buíoch freisin, arsa sé, den lucht féachana atá chomh dílis don chlár.
He particularly drew attention to the millions of euros the audience had raised for charitable organizations in Ireland during his time as a presenter.
Tharraing sé aird go háirithe ar na milliúin euro a bhailigh an lucht féachana ar son eagraíochtaí carthanachta in Éirinn le linn a thréimhse mar láithreoir.
He is also indebted to his family – especially his daughters – for supporting him since 2009, he said.
Tá sé faoi chomaoin ag a theaghlach chomh maith – a chlann iníon go háirithe – as tacú leis ó 2009, a dúirt sé.
In a statement, RTÉ Director-in-Chief Dee Forbes paid tribute to Ryan Tubridy.
I ráiteas, thug Príomh-Stiúrthóir RTÉ Dee Forbes moladh céadach do Ryan Tubridy.
She said that it had a lot to do with the community’s constant affection for the Late Late.
Dúirt sí go raibh baint mhór aige leis an dáimh sheasta atá ag an bpobal leis an Late Late.
RTÉ said that the first presenter of the Late Late would be announced sometime in the summer.
Dúirt RTÉ go bhfógrófaí céad láithreoir eile an Late Late uair éigin sa samhradh.
