"Patrick Kieity wrapped up his third season presenting The Late Late Show last night, but there is still no sign of a new deal for him to continue on as host."
"It is understood a pay rise for RTÉ boss Kevin Bakhurst appears to be holding up the show. The director general is due to get a €20,000 bump in pay, taking him to €270,000."
Patrick Kieity concluded his third season as the host of The Late Late Show, but a new contract has not been finalized. The delay in negotiations is reportedly linked to a pay increase for RTÉ's director general, Kevin Bakhurst, who is set to receive a €20,000 raise, bringing his salary to €270,000. This situation leaves Kieity's continuation as host in question as the show moves forward.
