Ryan Tubridy expected to announce engagement as jeweller lets cat out of the bag
Today at 21:30 Ryan Tubridy is expected to announce his engagement to long-term girlfriend Clare Kambamettu after a jeweller posted on social media that the former RTÉ broadcaster had bought a diamond ring from the shop – before deleting the post. Rumours have been swirling for weeks that the former RTÉ presenter had popped the question to the clinical psychologist and former Rose of Tralee winner, Dr Kambamettu. O'Dalaigh Jewellers in Clifden posted on social media that Tubridy (52) had come to them 'discreetly' looking for a ring for a 'very special lady' and told them that getting the ring in the west of Ireland would 'mean so much' to Dr Kambamettu. The jeweller said they were 'grateful' for the request and added Mr Tubridy requested laboratory diamonds rather than mined gemstones to ensure they were conflict free and environmentally friendly. The post was accompanied by a picture of the couple with a staff member outside the shop in Clifden. However, after media queries to Tubridy's agent, the jeweller's social media posts were deleted. A spokesperson for O'Dalaigh Jewellers said Tubridy had asked them to remove the posts and that he would be announcing something shortly. A spokesperson for Tubridy told the Irish Independent they could 'neither confirm nor deny' news of an engagement. In their now-deleted post on social media on Monday afternoon, O'Dalaigh Jewellers said: 'Ryan along with so many others have fallen in love with Connemara over the years. He discreetly came to us to discuss a special ring he needed for a very special lady. He knew that getting the ring in the West of Ireland would mean so much to Clare and he also wanted to shop local, which we are very grateful for! 'We chatted about Clare's style and bounced ideas over and back from London. From that, he chose a stunning 2.4 carat diamond ring which has a beautiful balance between a modern and old elegant style. The centre diamond is a 2 carat emerald cut with two tapered diamond baguettes on either side. "From our conversations with Ryan we knew Clare would prefer certified lab diamonds over natural diamonds to guarantee the stones being conflict free and without environmental impact from diamond mining. ADVERTISEMENT 'Through working with customers it's lovely to find out their back story and what I can say after meeting Ryan and Clare is that it seemed like destiny that their paths would cross as they have both had so many great memories in Connemara and as a result have such a grá for the place. This love story continues and in the process it's great to hear some positive news. Wishing this very happy couple a wonderful future together. Jonathan and all the O'Dalaigh Team.' Tubridy and Dr Kambamettu made their relationship public in 2023 when they appeared at the Irish Post Awards in London. Dr Kambamettu was born in Leeds to her Indian GP father Ravi, and Irish physiotherapist mother Breda, and the family moved to her mother's home town of Athy, Co Kildare, when she was eight. She won the Rose of Tralee title as the London Rose in 2010 when she was 26. Dr Kambamettu has a B.A. in Psychology and History and H. Dip. in Psychology from NUI Galway. She also completed a Masters in Mental Health specialising in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy at King's College London, and has presented RTÉ's Eco Eye. Tubridy, the former Late Late Show and RTÉ Radio 1 host, has successfully hosted a mid-morning show on the UK's Virgin Radio since leaving RTÉ amid the fallout from the Irish national broadcaster's secret payments controversy.
