Simon Delaney has revealed he’s leaving Ireland AM after seven years.
The presenter announced the news on this morning’s episode of the show.
He told his co-host Elaine Crowley and guest presenter Killian O’Sullivan that he has a lot of exciting projects in the works.
“I’m going to be filming for a movie in a couple of weeks, then have a couple of weeks off and then I’m doing another bit of filming which means I’m going to be stepping away from Ireland AM,” Simon announced.
“I’m here for [this] weekend, so you can’t get rid of me that easily.”
Asked if he could give any hints on his new projects, Simon answered: “I can’t really. They are two great jobs but you will be the first people to know [about them].”
Killian said: “I’m going to miss you though,” while Elaine gushed: “You’re the best co-host I ever had.”
Simon then told Elaine: “You’re the best co-host I ever had.”
“I’m here Saturday and Sunday too,” the presenter explained, revealing that his last hoorah on Ireland AM would be on Sunday.
