Doireann Garrihy gives honest maternity leave update: “The juggle is real”

"It's just a bit chaotic."

Garrihy welcomed her baby girl Rosie in October with husband Mark Mehigan and has been enjoying family life since.

However, the presenter revealed that life is starting to get busier as she revealed that she will set off on her The Laughs of Your Life tour in May.

"Life is really busy. I'm not back on the radio till May, and the tour, The Laughs of Your Life tour, isn't until May, so I'm in that weird in-between time where I'm not technically back to work, but I am," Doireann said.

"There's so much to be done now for everything to work out well in May," she said.

"So it's just a bit chaotic trying to juggle. The juggle is real."

The Dancing With The Stars host will return at the earlier time of 10 am when she arrives back on 2FM.

Speaking about her new time slot, Doireann said: "2FM MORNING with Doireann Garrihy on @rte2fm - I like the sound of that!

"After 10 years of radio, it’s an honour to be given the opportunity to steer the ship at the iconic mid-morning slot. Tune in weekdays from 10-12 from Tuesday, 5th May.

"I cannot wait to spend my mornings with you discussing some serious and very unserious topics. Let’s go."
