Patrick Kielty's TV future confirmed after Cat Deeley split as bosses issue statement
Patrick Kielty's RTE bosses have confirmed the star's future on the channel after his surprise split from wife of 13 years, Cat Deeley. Patrick Kielty's television career remains on track despite his recent split from Cat Deeley, with Irish broadcaster RTE providing an update after the couple's unexpected announcement. RTE has confirmed that despite personal difficulties, Patrick will be back at the helm of The Late Late Show when it returns in September. It comes following the surprising news that Patrick and his wife Cat Deeley are separating after 13 years married. The pair, who live in London with their two young sons, James, eight, and Milo, five, have been based there while Patrick travelled back and forth to RTE for his presenting commitments. An RTE spokesperson has confirmed the comedian's continued involvement with the show, saying: "RTÉ looks forward to Patrick returning to the Late Late Show in September." According to the Mirror, Patrick had previously revealed a three-season agreement with the national broadcaster. The dad of two has also made it clear that he will personally handle all travel and accommodation costs related to his work on the programme. Patrick, who is set to receive €250,000 per season, further noted that he would get €20,000 for pre-show work and rehearsals. Prior to taking over as host of the Late Late Show, he expressed: "I'm pleased to finally be able to share that I've signed a three-season deal to host The Late Late Show beginning this September. "I'm being paid €250,000 per 30-show season. If additional shows are requested by RTÉ, they'll be paid on a pro-rata basis. "I'm also receiving a one-off payment of €20,000 to cover the pre-production and rehearsals from now to September. The contract allows me to submit flight and accommodation expenses, but I've waived this. "I've made it clear to RTE that I will be covering my own flights and accommodation costs. I've also asked RTÉ to carbon offset my flights. I genuinely hope this helps clarify things going forward. I can't wait to get started." The update on Patrick's career moves comes following his separation from Cat, with the couple issuing a joint statement. It said: "We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved." They emphasised their commitment to their children and requested privacy, noting, "We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment." Details regarding when the split occurred remain unclear, though the couple had been living apart due to work commitments. Patrick was tied up with a significant contract in Ireland, while Cat was needed in London for her role on This Morning. Cat last mentioned Patrick on her Instagram in October 2023, following their final public appearance together the previous month.

Inside Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty's relationship as they announce split
Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty have announced their separation after more than a decade of marriage. Cat, 48, and Patrick, 54, relocated from Los Angeles to London in 2020, after having lived abroad for more than a decade. In a joint statement the couple have said: 'We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. 'We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment.' The So You Think You Can Dance host has been a staple of British TV since the late 1990s and even moved out to the US to present the dance competition. Cat moved her entire family out to the states following her success but she and her comedian husband have moved back to London since. She took over from Holly Willoughby on This Morning in 2024, reportedly keen to work alongside Rylan Clark as a co-host. Cat was unveiled as the new host of This Morning, alongside Ben Shepard, in February 2024. Earlier this year, it was revealed why Cat did not attend the funeral of Patrick's mother in County Down, Northern Ireland. The presenter said she wanted to be there for her sons Milo, nine, and James, seven, before and after they finished school as they grieved the loss of their grandmother. Her representative confirmed to MailOnline: 'Cat remained at home to be there for her two young children before and after school on this very sad day. Patrick is the host of The Late Late Show on Ireland's RTE One channel, he also presents a Saturday morning programme on BBC Radio 5 Live. The star has recently interviewed the likes of Paul Mescal, Andrew Scott, Jean Claude Van Damme, Take That and Jamie Dornan. He was announced as the host last year, taking over as the show's fourth-ever presenter from Ryan Tubridy. Before his turn as a late-night host, he was a stand-up comedian and toured in 2022 for the first time in seven years. In 2003, Patrick co-presented the talent competition show Fame Academy on BBC One alongside his future wife, Cat. Cat and Patrick met on the set but it would be years before they got together – partly as the Stars in Their Eyes presenter was married at the time. After her split, she revealed she would 'love to tie the knot' one day and really admired her parents' 30 year marriage. Slowly the friendship between the model and comedian devloped into a relationship and in 2012 they got married at an intimate ceremony in Rome, Italy. He had won her over by flying out to Los Angeles to see her on her birthday, paying for her and all her friends. 'That's quite possibly the most romantic thing anyone has ever done for me,' Closer magazine quoted her as saying. 'And he was just sitting there hanging out with 12 of my friends, making everybody laugh. 'It was romantic, noble, kind of amazing and pretty hard not to fall in love with him.' They moved back to their North London home, ditching the £3.8 million Beverly Hills mansion with its lavish amenities – including pool, gym and sunshine. The pair kept their kids fairly out of the spotlight but did occasionally post snaps together as a family on special occasions. Cat and her family now reside in a £4.9 million 1950s home in leafy Hampstead, with Harry Styles as one of their famous neighbours. Together the couple have two sons; Milo born in January 2016 and James who arrived two years later in June 2018. Before welcoming James, Cat had shared with The Daily Mirror: 'I would love some more. But I have got to get on with it if I do. 'When you go for your check-ups they call you a 'geriatric mum'. That is the terminology they use, I swear.' Before falling for Patrick, Cat was in a five-year relationship with public relationships executive, Mark Whelan. They got together in 2000, tying the knot despite the presenter – then in her late 20s – saying she wasn't sure about marriage just yet. More Trending The divorce was finalised in February 2006, as Cat upped sticks to the US and admitted that her focus was on work at the time.

Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty 'living separate lives' before shock split
This Morning's Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty have announced they are separating after 13 years of marriage, with the couple not seen together in public in over a year. Comedian Patrick Kielty and Cat Deeley have revealed their shocking separation after 13 years of marriage. It has now emerged that the pair appeared to be leading separate lives in the lead-up to their surprising split. The TV stars disclosed on Tuesday, July 29, that they are no longer together in a bombshell statement. However, prior to the announcement, the pair hadn't been photographed together publicly for more than a year. The final photograph of the couple together was captured in 2023, according to reports in the Mirror. They looked content in the picture as they attended the Ballywalter London premiere at The May Fair Hotel on September 18, 2023. At the time, This Morning presenter Cat posted on her social media showing the pair beaming as they prepared for the event and then sat amongst the audience. Patrick was subsequently invited onto the stage. Cat posted on her Instagram: "Magical evening last night at the London Premiere of @BallywalterFilm! . Celebrating the talents of @PatricKielty and @SeanaKerslake, director @PrasannaBanana, and the brilliant cast and crew! (+ @EdiBow... the hostess with the mostest! ) #BallywalterFilm is in cinemas very soon on 9/22 ! !" A month later, Patrick made his last appearance on the This Morning presenter's Instagram page. Nearly two years on, the couple has called it quits after Patrick seemingly disappeared from Cat's social media posts. This also follows Cat failing to post a Father's Day tribute to Patrick last month. The former couple share two children together. Prior to their announcement, the couple had relocated their family from Los Angeles to London in 2023. This followed 15 years of living in the US. Now, in a joint statement issued to the PA news agency, they said: "We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. "We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment." Whilst Cat became the presenter of ITV's morning programme, Patrick fronted RTE's The Late Late Show. She had previously spoken candidly about the difficulties they encountered when trying to balance parenthood with hosting the programme. She admitted the "juggle" was "real". In March earlier this year, Cat was absent from Patrick's mum's funeral in Northern Ireland. Devastating images captured a heartbroken Patrick carrying her coffin through the streets. Hundreds had gathered to line the roads as those dearest to Mary and her family came together for a service at the Church of the Sacred Heart in Dundrum. At the time, a spokesperson informed the Mirror that Cat had stayed at home to look after their young sons Milo and James. They said: "Cat remained at home to be there for her two young children before and after school on this very sad day." The pair first crossed paths while co-hosting Fame Academy in 2002, but it wasn't until nine years later in 2011 that they made their debut as a couple. They exchanged vows in a romantic ceremony in Rome in September 2012. During a 2020 guest appearance on Ireland's The Late Late Show, then hosted by Ryan Tubridy, Cat revealed how Patrick had initially won her over: "We had been friends for a very, very long time. Since we did [TV show] Fame Academy and all that," she shared. "We would always call each other on birthdays or Christmas, or we'd see each other occasionally or whatever it was. Anyway, there was a night where it was the day before my birthday. I can't even remember what birthday it was now! It was 30-something. Anyway, he called me and he spoke to me on the phone." The mum-of-two continued: "He said, 'Oh, what are you doing for your birthday? I'm just ringing to say happy birthday.' I said, 'Oh, we're going to the Beverly Hills Hotel. We're just going to have a late brunch; it's going to be very civilised. It's a shame you're not here, otherwise you could come'. And he was like, 'Well, eh I'll be there'. "Now, bear in mind at this point, Ryan, he was at the Maghera Inn down the end of the road, and in Ireland, I think it was approximately three o'clock in the morning, so I wasn't too sure! I was like, 'Yeah, yeah, sure you will. Sure you will, Charlie Big Bananas, sure you'll be there! I'll hold you a seat, how about that? "Anyway, I didn't know this, but he basically stumbled home from the pub, set an alarm clock, booked a flight to go back to Heathrow I think the first flight out."
