Love Island star Greg O’Shea has addressed the rumours of his split with Amber, confirming on the Late Late Show that they have broken up.
The Limerick hunk scooped the £50,000 (€55,680) prize money with his partner Amber after just 12 days on the hit Virgin Media 2 programme.
This evening, he dismissed rumours that he dumped the Newcastle star over text and said it was a mutual agreement, made over a number of days and phone calls.
He also revealed he has landed himself with a gig on the 2fm Breakfast Show.
Now, he’s ready to team up with Doireann Garrihy to present the morning radio slot while Doireann’s co-presenter Eoghan McDermott travels to Fiji to work on Love Island Australia for nine weeks.
Revealing his new gig on tonight’s Late Late Show, Greg said he will begin working with Doireann on September 23.
“I am honestly over-the-moon to have the opportunity to work alongside Doireann while Eoghan is away,” Greg said.
“She is an amazing woman, so talented and I know I’ll learn loads from her.
“I will have to get a few tips from Eoghan on how to take on the early mornings but I’m really looking forward to giving it a go and having some craic.”
Doireann decribed her new co-presenter as “genuine, sound and fun” and reassured Eoghan the Limerick man will just be “keeping his seat warm”.
“When I met Greg this week he said I reminded him of his sister! I’m taking it as a compliment, and a sign that we’re going to have great craic,” she added.
While 2FM boss Dan Healy said he believes there is a “major radio star” in Greg, Eoghan was quick to keep Greg’s feet on solid ground.
“I’m absolutely thrilled that Greg is stepping into the hot-seat whilst I’m filming in Fiji,” Eoghan said.
“Obviously his biceps and abs are puny and embarrassing in comparison to mine, but I’ve no doubt he’ll be a huge hit with the breakfast family and keep Doireann on her toes.”
