Louise Duffy will be taking over from Keith Cunningham on Today FM at the end of March, the station confirmed on Saturday morning.
KC announced recently that he would be moving to Red FM in Cork in the coming weeks, and his replacement comes in the shape of Louise Duffy, who moves from an early morning slot to present the lunchtime show.
She commented on the announcement: “I am delighted to take over the lunchtime show on Today FM. It's a marvellous opportunity, and one which I'm so grateful for.
“I love being part of the Today FM team. It's a great place to work, and after three years on early breakfast, I'm so excited about this new challenge and can’t wait to getting started!”
The station added:
“Louise Duffy has been a tremendous presenter on Today FM since she joined the full-time on air team three years ago. Louise has a growing fan base because of her natural, warm and engaging personality.
“She has honed her broadcasting chops in a very difficult part of the day (5-7am weekdays), where in the last year alone, she has grown the base by over 40%.
“Louise is no stranger to primetime, having covered in the afternoons and added a new dimension to Today FM’s Summer Saturday’s last year .... as well as being an integral part of the Breakfast Show team each weekday morning.”
