Glenda Gilson has officially joined the Ireland AM team!
The former Xpose presenter announced the news on her Instagram story this morning, after appearing on the show’s Halloween special.
“If you tuned into Ireland AM, you will know that I am now part of the team, bringing you all things entertainment and showbiz,” the mum-of-one told her fans.
This is her first gig, since Xpose’s axing last month. Glenda, who had been a part of the show since 2008, found the demise particularly tough.
Speaking exclusively to VIP Magazine at the time, she said, “Obviously I’m very sad to see Xpose go. I think to see the brand go is the thing that’s killing me because we worked hard to get it to where it was.
“We had some hard days, some great days. When it started it was a tough time, especially when everyone told us it wouldn’t succeed because there weren’t enough celebrities in Ireland to do a show like we did. We did live shows, we did hour long shows, we did everything.”
Glenda continued, “I loved every minute of it. And it was our blood, sweat and tears, all of us; Karen, Lisa, Aisling, Sybil and myself, and the background team that were there from the beginning and then everyone who joined throughout the years.
“We all loved it and had such passion for the show. You just don’t know what the future will bring, but of course I’m sad because it’s the end of an era.”
We wish Glenda the best of luck with her new gig!
