RTE star Doireann Garrihy had a “stressful” travel trip propelled into a pleasant one after a receiving a surprise benefit.
The 2FM host and her husband Mark Mehigan jetted over to France early this morning, despite air strikes taking place.
Doireann Garrihy told followers she was stressed about the flightDoireann and Mark ended up getting a sweet surprise
Doireann took to her Instagram story before the plane took off to share an update with fans.
The 32-year-old explained that the pair had just boarded their flight but admitted: “It was all a very stressful time because of the strikes on the air traffic control in France.”
The Dancing With The Stars host emphasised how their entire trip was “touch and go” due to the strikes.
She added: “I didn’t even know if we’d be getting on this flight or not.”
The TVstar told how the airline decided to get a bigger plane and fit two flights onto one, in order to decrease the amount of air traffic going through France.
But, because of the change in plane, Doireann and Mark were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to business class.
The mum-to-be looked delighted as she panned the camera around to show her private seated area and extra leg room.
The Irish host beamed as she said: “Well this is a novelty isn’t it?”
Jennifer Zamparelli will star in The Rocky Horror Picture ShowJen jetted over the London to rehearse for the showJen updated fans on her first day of rehearsals
The renowned stage show will take to the stage at Dublin‘s Bord Gais EnergyTheatre from Monday, August 11 to Wednesday, August 16.
The musical will then travel to Derry’s Millenium Forum to perform from August 18 to 23 and all the way to the fabulous CorkOpera House from August 25 to 30.
Jen will be joining Aussie singer, Jason Donovan in the Rocky Horror Show ensemble, alongside a full cast of West End actors.
The 45-year-old jetted over to London yesterday for her first rehearsal in the famous New Wimbledon Theatre.
The Dublinstar was ecstatic to start her journey working on the famous show and documented her day.
As she walked up to the theatre, Jen filmed the outside of the venue and wrote: “Lets go!!!! Rocky Horror rehearsals!!”
Jen finished up the run through, but admitted to feeling slightly taken aback by the work load.
The mum-of-two recorded herself leaving the theatre and said: “So I just finished my first rehearsal there and it’s kind of more than I thought.
“There a lot of work in it. But the guys are lovely.”
Earlier last week, Jen opened up about her stage nerves while chatting to Rebecca and Brendon on 98FM.
The host confessed: “Everytime I talk about it I get even more scared. Because its one thing to stand on a stage, but standing next to West End actors and Jason Donovan and doing the Time Warp is a different level of fear.”
Jen told how she was delighted to land the role of The Narrator as it’s “not much of a character role” and is more to do with interacting with the audience.
“So it’s a bit of craic and I get to do the Time Warp.”
The former 2FM star shared her apprehension surrounding the idea of performing eight shows a week.
She added: “I don’t know if I have it in me. Time will tell.”
Jen recalled watching Stephen Fry when he played The Narrator and gushed over how “slick” his performance was.
But we’re sure Jen will live up to all expectations when she hits the stage this August.

PAUL O’Connell has warned his Ireland debutants that they will have no easy introduction to Test rugby.
Tommy O’Brien and Darragh Murray will make their international bows as starters against Georgia on Saturday.
The former Munster captain is standing in for the absent Andy FarrellMurray, 23, starts in second row after impressing with Connacht last season
Munster duo Michael Milne and Tom Ahern as well as Connacht pair Jack Aungier and Ben Murphy are also poised to win their first caps off the bench.
A further 11 members of the matchday 23 are in single figures when it comes to Test appearances.
But, while Georgia might, on paper, look like an easier assignment than what they could have been handed, O’Connell is expecting a tough task.
The interim Ireland coach said: “We’ve had so many players selected for the Lions. There’s another bonus for us in that we get this really tough Test match in a country that is full of confidence in how their rugby is going.
“These guys have a real challenge on their hands. It’s not a Test match of small significance. It’s a really significant Test match where they have to perform. So they’re going to learn a lot.
“Georgia are an excellent side. They’re a very proud rugby nation, but they’re really well coached as well.
“We know a lot of their coaches, obviously Conor McPhillips, Roddy Grant. I would have learned an awful lot from Roddy Grant when I first came into the job at Ireland. He was working in Ulster at the time.
“You can see it in how they play. They’re very well organised. I suppose a little bit like us.
“They’re quite passionate about what they do and they’re able to combine that now with some really good organisation and really good structure to what they do.
“They have a mixture of players playing in France who bring a real, I suppose, flair to what they do. And the Black Lions players have impressed a lot of the coaches as well.
“They did a good autumn. They obviously beat Tonga. They had a good summer last year. They put 29 points on Australia down there.
“They beat a tier-one nation in Japan. They’ve been steadily beating tier-one nations. So, yeah,It’s a brilliant Test match for our players.”
And O’Connell admitted he cannot expect the perfect performance from a group of players who are not overly familiar with each other.
He said: “Really you’re trying to come together on a Monday and trying to be ready to play a Test match with no excuses on the following Saturday.
“It won’t be perfect. We’re aware that when we play even with the most experienced internationals in the group that it won’t be perfect so trying to make the players aware of that as well is really important and we just have to crack on then.
“I’m sure there’ll be plenty of nerves, but that’s part of it. You almost have to experience that and go through it a little bit to learn how to figure it out.”
CR7 posted online: “It doesn’t make sense. Just now we were together in the National Team, just now you had gotten married.
“To your family, your wife, and your children, I send my condolences and wish them all the strength in the world. I know you will always be with them. Rest in Peace, Diogo and Andre. We will all miss you.”
This afternoon, Jota‘s former manager Klopp released the following statement: “This is a moment where I struggle! There must be a bigger purpose! But I can’t see it!
“I’m heartbroken to hear about the passing of Diogo and his brother André. Diogo was a not only a fantastic player, but also a great friend, a loving and caring husband and father! We will miss you so much!
“All my prayers, thoughts and power to Rute, the kids, the family, the friends and everyone who loved them! Rest in peace – Love.”
Liverpool and Jota’s former club Wolves have also paid tribute to Portugese forward, who was married just 11 days ago, as have many of his ex-teammates and figures from the world of football.

The HSE is reminding Irish people of the symptoms you may spot that could be a sign of a rare cancer during its awareness month.
July is Sarcoma Awareness Month – and the HSE has issued information on the symptoms people may experience.
A sarcoma is a rare cancerous tumourGetty Images - GettyJuly is sarcoma awareness monthX
Every year in Ireland, around 235 people are diagnosed with some type of sarcoma.
A sarcoma is a rare cancerous tumour that can affect three parts of the body – bones, cartilage and soft tissue.
In a post on X, the HSE said: “July is sarcoma awareness month. Sarcomas are rare cancerous tumours which affect bone, cartilage or soft tissues.
“About 235 people are diagnosed each year in Ireland with some type of sarcoma.”
Spotting cancer early means that it is less likely to have grown bigger or spread, and may mean that it is easier to treat.
To help the chances of detecting it early, you should know the signs and symptoms and be aware of changes to your body that are new or you cannot explain.
You should then contact your GP so they can check you out and find what is causing these changes.
If your GP thinks it may be cancer, they will refer you to a specialist for more tests.
There are a range of signs and symptoms to keep an eye out for, including:
a new lump or bump
a lump or bump that changes in size or look
bleeding that you cannot explain – from anywhere in your body
bruising you do not know the cause of
pain that will not go away and has no clear cause
pooing more often than usual or constipation
blood in your pee or peeing more often than usual
changes on your skin – a new or changing mole
difficulty chewing, swallowing or moving your tongue
losing weight without trying or that you cannot explain
feeling tired all the time – more than is normal for you
a new, persistent cough or a change to your usual cough
shortness of breath – more than is normal for you
night sweats you cannot explain
But it’s important to remember that these are the common symptoms, and having them does not mean you have cancer as they can be caused by other conditions.
If you have symptoms, you should contact your GP and not wait for your next cancer screening appointment.
You should regularly check your body for any new lumps or changes – especially in the breasts, underarms, groin or testicles.
You should contact your GP if you notice:
a lump that is new
a lump that is changing in size or appearance
a lump in your breast or under your arm
a testicle that feels different or has changed size
a new cough that lasts for more than 3 weeks
a cough that has changed or is different to your usual cough
chest or shoulder pain that does not go away
shortness of breath more than is normal for you
blood when you cough
have chest infections that keep coming back
have blood in your poo
have diarrhoea or constipation for no obvious reason.
Feel you still need to poo after pooing
have a pain in your stomach or bottom
feel your tummy is bloated all the time
have tummy discomfort
have no appetite or you are full very quickly after eating
Your poo is loose, pale or looks greasy
have blood in your pee
need to pee more often
feel that you cannot fully empty your bladder
strain or feel that it is difficult to pee
often get up in the middle of the night to pee
have a weaker flow of pee
You may also see changes in your skin, including on moles, freckles or on a patch of skin.
CHANGES IN SKIN
Contact your GP if you have a mole that:
has an uneven or crooked shape
is changing shape or appearance
has an uneven border with jagged edges
is changing colour or has more than 1 colour – it may have brown, black, red, pink or white flecks or patches
is bigger than 6mm wide, or is getting bigger
is itchy, crusting, bleeding or sore
A change in a mole could be a sign of a type of skin-cancer called melanoma, while a lump, unusual patch or crusted area of skin that has not healed is usually the first sign of non-melanoma skin cancer.
Contact your GP if you have any unexplained bleeding, such as:
blood in your pee or poo
bleeding from your bottom
blood when you cough
blood in your vomit
vaginal bleeding between periods or after sex
vaginal bleeding when you are postmenopausal (at least 1 year after your last period)
bruising you do not know the cause of
You should contact your GP if you have lost weight and either do not know the cause, or did not lose it through dieting or exercising.
You should also contact your GP if you have bloating that does not go away, or you experience indigestion, heartburn or acid reflux.
HIGHER RISK
Other signs include pain anywhere in your stomach or back, itchy or yellow skin or whites of eyes, or feeling tired and unwell but you’re not sure why.
You have a higher risk of getting cancer if:
you are age 50 and over – but it can happen at any age
genetic tests show you have inherited specific genes, for example, BRCA or Lynch syndrome
one or more of your close relatives have had cancer (such as parent, brother, sister or child)
