Lucy Kennedy would jump at chance to co-host Late Late after wild night out with RTE star

Lucy Kennedy has admitted she had such a wild night out with one RTE star that she was left nearly 'vomiting into his fridge' but would still jump at the chance to co-host the Late Late with him.

The RTE presenter revealed in an interview that her favourite guest was on her show Living with Lucy was Rose of Tralee host Dáithí O'Se.

He appeared on the show almost 15 years ago and the pair struck up a close friendship that remains to this day, Lucy told Goss.ie.

Lucy gave an insight into what it was like having Daithi on the show - and it sounded like it was quite the bonding experience.

However, the night out in Galway seems to have put Lucy off ever doing brandy shots again.

"My favourite [celebrity on the show]? I’d have to say Dáithí Ó Sé, who is one of my favourite people in Europe. We sealed the deal in friendship then, and that was 12 or 13 years ago.

"I just adore him, even though he put me off brandy for life because we were doing brandy shots out in Galway and I tried to vomit into his fridge afterwards. But I love him."

Lucy was also said she would jump at the opportunity to co-host the Late Late Show with Daithi.

"If he [Daithi] was in the running for the Late Late gig and I was asked to do it with him, yes please! He’s someone else who I have professional chemistry with. Maybe that’s the thing to do, maybe RTÉ should have a male AND a female presenter on the Late Late. Why not?”

Lucy has been happily married for the last 14 years after meeting her husband Richard when they were just 23 years old. They are parents to three children – Jack, Holly and Jess.
