Ryan Tubridy and Dr Clare Kambamettu are engaged

Tubridy confirmed the milestone news on air this morning. The presenter was hosting his Virgin Media UK show when he shared the news.

Tubridy confirmed he popped the question during a trip to the West of Ireland.

He shared: "Even though I’m a public person doing the job that I do, I also have quite a lot of privacy that I like to keep to myself, however, the cat has been removed from the bag for a number of different reasons and I’m very, very, very, very, very happy to confirm that I did indeed get engaged to my partner, Clare on Thursday evening in the West of Ireland."

Speaking about their engagement, Tubridy gushed: "It is a very beautiful feeling. We were surrounded by gorgeous people who we didn’t know — strangers in the hotel and people who were working around the place.

He added, "We got a beautiful ring organised and the weather was gorgeous."

"It’s just an accumulation of a lot of lovely things happening and I just decided now is the time. Here we go. More to follow in terms of details and all the rest of it — I’ll tell my family first and then I’ll let you know," he told his listeners.

Tubridy and Dr. Clare Kambamettu have been together since 2023.

O'Dalaigh Jewellers reportedly let the news slip after posting a photo of Tubridy visiting their shop online.
