Miriam O’Callaghan reveals how she copes with online trolls

Miriam O’Callaghan has revealed how she deals with online trolls.

The RTE star is one of the broadcaster’s most well-known presenters for her shows Primetime and Saturday Night With Miriam.

“I don’t go on the hashtag #MiriamOCallaghan until two days after the show has aired. By then all of the nasty comments have gone, and I don’t want to see them,” she said.

The mother-of-eight admitted that a lot of her colleagues have deleted their Twitters because of the abuse but she plans on holding onto hers.

“Twitter is a nasty place. A lot of my colleagues have deleted their accounts, but I haven’t,” she told the Irish Independent.

“It’s a bounty of information. By and large people are very nice. People realise they can be prosecuted for what they say now.”

Miriam is a huge fan of social media and even took over online star James Kavanagh’s Snapchat a few weeks ago.

“When I drop the kids to school in the morning I scroll through Twitter and I get the news from all over the world.

“I love Facebook and Snapchat. I took over James Kavanagh’s Snapchat a couple of weeks ago and I loved it,” she added.

“It was so much fun.”
