RTE presenter and 2FM DJ Jennifer Zamparelli admitted that she was stopped by Gardai and given a speeding ticket as she raced home to her injured son last year.
The celeb was heading to her south Dublin pad from the set of Dancing With The Stars to attend to her son Enzo who had suffered an accident in their family home.
The anchor of the morning show said she cried for nearly a solid 30 minutes before going live on air after her little two-year-old slipped on the floor, fell on his face and lost a tooth according to RSVP Live.
She was straight out the door after the show and sped home only to be pulled over by officers on her way back to the house.
The 2FM presenter told Now TV: "It was one of the hardest shows I have ever had to do and then I got a speeding ticket coming home!
"I put the foot down driving from the studio and the Gardaí stopped me.
"My son had slipped on the floor with the babysitter and I had 10 minutes to go live."
She added: "I got a video from the babysitter, as he had smashed his face on the floor and lost his tooth. I couldn't leave leave, they couldn't have drafted in anybody that quick!"
"I tried to explained about the tooth; tried to drop in Dancing with the Stars, nah, didn't budge. It was my first ticket ever. He looks like a little pirate now."
