Kayleigh Trappe says doing Dancing with the Stars helped her 'battle her demons'

Social media star Kayleigh Trappe has said taking part in RTÉ's Dancing With The Stars helped her "battle her demons" and helped her mental health. The Monaghan native previously opened up about battling with her confidence when she was younger. But Kayleigh said taking part in the show earlier this year helped her mental health, crediting her dance partner Irvinas Merfeldas. She told the Irish Mirror: "I think growing up, I would have struggled with that (confidence) a lot. I thought I had dealt with all my demons but when you're on a show like that, even one of the things Irvinas was quick to point out was the mirrors. "So in the studio, you're surrounded by mirrors the whole time. And he said, 'this makes you uncomfortable at the beginning', I was like, 'it does'. And he was like, 'why?'

But by the end, he was like, stop looking in the mirror," she said, laughing. "It's just funny, the little things that come out of you and obviously you're on television. On my first day, I was wearing a pink tutu and pink in my hair. "But again, I wear wigs for a living, so I just wanted to embrace every bit of it. I told them to throw me in anything. And I was just glad that I was comfortable with it all. "In the end, it came out of it a lot happier, like up above mentally as well." She admitted when the show ended, she felt like somebody had "died". "Obviously, when the show ended, it was like someone had died. If you need me, I'm in bed crying because it was just such a big part of my life. "But luckily, days like today, getting to judge Friday's Most Stylish is fantastic. "Working at different bits and bobs, television as well. There's plenty of bits like that coming up, so there's no stopping it anyway, hopefully, unless I cancel myself in the morning." Kayleigh was speaking to us ahead of her judging duties at Friday's Most Stylish at the Galway Races, where Clodagh Cosgrove was crowned the winner in a competition sponsored by Athlone Towncentre. The 36-year-old scooped a luxury shop and stay break, winning €2,500 to spend at Athlone Towncentre, as well as a luxury two-night stay in the four-star Sheraton Athlone Hotel and a €500 voucher for Fields jewellery. The Athlone native impressed the judges with her purple dress with orange flowers, which was preloved that she wore to a wedding. Her shoes were from Zara from a few years ago and her handbag was from Depop. She completed her race-going outfit with a purple head piece that she got from Depop that only arrived on Friday morning. Clodagh Cosgrove from Athlone, Co Westmeath was the winner of Athlone Towncentre Friday's Most Stylish Lady at the Galway Races (Image: Hany Marzouk) Clodagh, who works in finance in Dublin, said: "I am so shocked. I haven't been to the races in years. I went all out for today. I've never won at the races before. I am really shocked. It's amazing style here. I really am speechless." Clodagh is also mam to four-year-old Emily and two-year-old George. One of the key reasons Clodagh was chosen as winner of Friday's Most Stylish was due to the way she created a wholly individual look, incorporating pieces from high street stores. Kayleigh said: "I definitely love colour. I love creativity. I love a story behind it, especially with the sustainability outfit in mind. "This is my second time here at the Galway Races. There's something for everybody. I wouldn't have a breeze about betting but I love the style element of it." Wearing a top from Aoife McNamara, she matched her outfit with a skirt that's three years old from a boutique in Westport called The Dressing Room. She matched her outfit with a hat from Sinead B Millinery. Kayleigh said: "I was very conscious of trying to keep it sustainable and re-wear a few things." Marietta Doran, Shirley Delahunt, Athlone Towncentre and Kayleigh Trappe (Image: ©INPHO/Tom OHanlon) Thousands of fashionable punters arrived at the Ballybrit racecourse for Friday's Most Stylish. Talking about Friday's Festival meet, Michael Moloney, CEO of Galway Racecourse, said "the Friday of our seven-day Festival has grown from strength to strength". "Style competitions at Galway Racecourse such as Friday's Most Stylish sponsored by Athlone Towncentre add to the excitement and enjoyment of the day. Advance ticket sales were very strong again this year, proving its huge appeal and popularity.' Athlone Towncentre Manager Shirley Delahunt says "we are thrilled to see another deserving winner of this year's 'Friday's Most Stylish' competition". "The decision of choosing a winner proved to be highly challenging with so many beautiful looks worn by women enjoying this evening's cacing in Galway. "Clodagh has demonstrated that racing style is more about reflecting one's individual personality and love of style as opposed to spending an exorbitant amount of money on clothing one cannot wear more than a handful of times. "Friday evening of race week is a highlight in the calendars of stylish race goers from far and wide. "We have seen a real evolution of style at the races over the last number of years which perfectly complements the high street stores and boutiques we house in Athlone Towncentre.'

"If you want to give yourself praise for a performance like that, then maybe she shouldn't box me again. "If that's how she wants to beat me, that's fair enough.
