Sky Sports presenter Rachel Wyse has insisted she isn’t worried about meeting Joe Brolly after his sexist comments about her.
The RTE pundit was attacked after branding the broadcaster a “Baywatch babe” when she was picked for the satellite network’s GAA coverage.
The All-Ireland winner said that Sky had only picked Wyse, 29, because of her looks – before later apologising.
Sexism row: Joe’s comments were called sexist
Now Rachel has broken her silence on the row, insisting she isn’t worried about meeting Joe after his comments.
Asked on 2FM if she was “going to shake his hand or kick him in the balls” when she has to “meet him face-to-face”, Wyse said it will be “absolutely fine”.
She replied: “Oh God, certainly not the latter. I am sure we are going to meet in Croke Park in the next couple of weeks and it will be absolutely fine.”
Famous face: Rachel is well known on Sky Sports
Previously Brolly said his remarks that her hiring were just “designed for their overwhelmingly male audience” was wrong.
He said: “I apologise for the remark about a ‘Baywatch babe’.
“It was not meant to be personal but it was crass & wrong of me. It will not be repeated.”
