Rory Cowan has joined the line-up for RTÉ’s Dancing with the Stars 2024.
The actor is best known for his role as Rory Brown on Mrs Brown’s Boys, a character he portrayed between 2011 and 2017.
The 64-year-old also appeared in Mrs Brown’s Boys D’Movie back in 2014.
Ahead of his DWTS stint, Rory said: “Last year I couldn’t do it because I had back surgery. But this year it’s going to be fantastic because I’m 64, I’m turning 65 in July and I just want to go out with a bang.”
“I’m not going to be doing anything else after this. I’ll continue with Fair City for as long as they like, that’s wonderful show to have. But when I’m 65 I want to do as little as possible! I just think that dancing lifts your heart.”
“I don’t have any expectations of winning this. I’ve plantar fasciitis. I’ve had back surgery. I’m a bit decrepit for my age! I’m in good form but I just know if I don’t do it this year, I’ll never do it.”
