RTE star opens up on ADHD
Alan said: "Congratulations."
A third added: "You look stunning Blathnaid."
Last month, Blathnaid revealed that "everything changed" after getting diagnosed with ADHD.
The 2FM host got formally diagnosed with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) last August after her husband suggested she had the condition.
Speaking on The Six O'Clock Show, Blathnaid explained: "My husband is a teacher and he was doing a little bit of teacher training and learning about teaching people who are neurodivergent.
STAR'S STRUGGLE
"And he kind of said to me, 'I think you might have ADHD, you kind of have a lot of the symptoms, I think you have them'.
"Then I started looking into it myself and I was like, 'Wow, this is me'."
The radio star explained how "overwhelmed" she felt during that pregnancy.
She said: "If you're a woman and you have a baby and you have ADHD, your symptoms explode. They go through the roof. And that's what happened to me.
"I was kind of feeling all sorts of feelings and getting stressed out very easily... like really easy, finding things overwhelming.
"Like stacking things, that can be something that people with ADHD, they kind of have a list in their head.
"And they're like, 'Okay, I have so many things to do, I don't even know where to start. I'm not even going to do, I can't'."

Dublin woman Anna Haugh to replace Gregg Wallace on MasterChef
Wallace stepped away from the show following allegations of misconduct, which first came to light in November 2024. Haugh, who first moved to London 20 years ago, is the owner of the Myrtle Sister restaurant and The Wee Sister wine bar in London. The chef lives in the capital with her partner Richard Elwell, who co-owns the Mrytle Sister, along with her stepson Henry and son, Oisin. Originally offered a place in what was the Dublin Institute of Technology, which is now Technological University Dublin, to study graphic design, she declined for the institute's Cathal Brugha Street campus to study professional cookery. From there, she first gained experience in the Salthill Hotel in Galway before she began training under chefs in Michelin-starred kitchens in Dublin, London, Paris and the US. Her first foray into a top kitchen was while she worked for Irish celebrity chef Derry Clarke in his award-winning Michelin Star restaurant L'Ecrivain on Baggot Street in Dublin. Speaking on The Anton Savage Show in May, Haugh said: 'It was my second year apprenticeship, so I was really keen to kind of learn the craft, and L'Ecrivain was a great place to teach you that.' She also worked for Gordon Ramsey for ten years, both in the UK and the US. In an Instagram post last year, she said: 'I've always worked for talented, fiercely passionate chefs but working for Gordon gave me the experience and strength to open up Myrtle Restaurant. 'I saw how supportive he was to everyone including the often forgotten kitchen porters. It was a demanding job and I loved it completely,' she added. Both Haugh's restaurant and wine bar, which sit beside each other, focus on food produced in Ireland and wines made across the world by Irish people. The restaurant, which she opened in 2019, serves dishes like boxty, Irish potato pancakes, Carlingford oysters and Clonakilty black pudding. It is described as offering 'Modern European cooking with an Irish influence'. However, Haugh emphasised to Anton Savage on his show earlier in the summer that the Irish side was what was most in demand. 'Very quickly I realised that what people wanted was more of the Irishness, the culture, the food, the produce, the stories,' she said. Currently, Haugh is the host of Anna Haugh's Big Irish Food Tour on the BBC, touring 15 counties with Irish and UK celebrities exploring Irish culture and cuisine. From making black pudding with Una Healy in Tipperary to catching trout with Shane Ward in Louth, the top chef traversed the country, exploring Irish food. It won't be the first time Haugh will appear on the amateur cooking competition, albeit the first as a presenter. In 2022, she joined Wallace and Marcus Wareing as a judge for MasterChef: The Professionals. She has also appeared as a guest judge on Gordon Ramsay's US show Hell's Kitchen and as a chef on the BBC's Ready Steady Cook. She also makes appearances on daytime shows, including Saturday Kitchen, hosted by Matt Tebbutt.
