Ryan Tubridy announces first guest for his last Late Late - President Michael D Higgins

RTE star Ryan Tubridy has revealed President Michael D Higgins will be among the guests for his final Late Late Show.

The host shared the news on his RTE Radio 1 show earlier today as he praised Late Late successor Patrick Kielty and wished him all the best.

Looking ahead to his "big week", Ryan said: "On Thursday, I'm going to Aras an Uachtarain to meet President Higgins who's very kindly invited us up to do our final interview together.

"I think some people in his office or even he was saying our 14 years have been pretty much paralleled - obviously his in a much more important, lofty way and me in my own small way in TV Land! He's always been very generous with his time, and I appreciate the invitation."

Ryan will host his last ever Late Late Show this Friday after being at the helm for the last 14 years. It will be on RTE One and RTE Player every Friday at 9:35pm.
