More guests are expected to be announced later this week.
Last week, Ryan was joined by popular Irish influencer Rachel Gorry on the show, who spoke about the loss of her late husband Daniel, and the trolling she’s faced online over the past year.
Viewers were shocked over Rachel’s story, and took to Twitter to praise her for being so strong despite everything she’s been through.
The Late Late Show returns this Friday, April 16 at 9:35pm on RTÉ One.
