Heartbreaking 💔
Ryan Tubridy has spoken out following the death of Christy Dignam. In an emotional tribute to the Aslan frontman, Ryan admitted he was “quite shocked” by his death.
On Wednesday morning live on his Radio One show, Ryan Tubridy shared a moving tribute to Christy saying: “At 4pm he passed, the news broke very swiftly after that. While it was inevitable, it’s never easy to hear about that, especially as someone we all took under our wing as a friend of ours, as someone we admired and someone we loved.
Reminiscing on his afternoon spent with Christy, Ryan said: “We had a lovely afternoon chatting in the back garden, about his father and love of bel canto music. I remember at the time, I don’t think my confidence was as great as it could have been. It was a tricky time. I wanted to get under the skin of some of the guests I met and Christy was one.”The former Late Late show presenter revealed Christy even moved his bedroom downstairs so they could have a quiet intimate chat about life.
