Miriam O’Callaghan and her husband Steve Carson are planning to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary at the place where they first met.
The pair met each other when they were working on an RTE show at Strokestown House in Roscommon and are now planning a romantic return.
“We came back a few years ago and since it’s 20 years this month we will come back to visit together,” she said.

“We worked together that June but we didn’t actually get together for a while after that, but we always said that day in Strokestown was such a special day and it’s always had a significant place in my heart.”
Miriam revealed that she had an instant connection with Steve when they first met.
It came at the right time, with the Prime Time presenter having recently gotten out of her first marriage.
“My producer called me up and said they were doing a film on the Famine and would I do it, that maybe it would be good for me to go back to work,” she told the RTE Guide.

“She also said to me that they had a new producer on board, a guy from Belfast called Steve Carson.”
“I really liked him straight away. We made a good few shows together; after the Famine documentary, we worked together again in November and then the following year we got together again.”
The TV star was full of praise for her husband and insisted he’s the best producer she’s ever worked with.
“I loved working with him, I’ve been blessed and really lucky with loads of great producers but he’s definitely been the best,” she said.
