Commenting, Karen said, “I’m delighted to be back on my old stomping ground on breakfast television. I’m looking forward to it immensely”.

Taking to Instagram after the exciting news was announced, the beauty assured viewers she would be heading back to Xpose once her time alongside Mark Cagney and Alan Hughes is up.

“Watching Ireland AM every morning has been a huge part of my routine on my 3 maternity leaves.” she said.

“So it seems fitting that I’m swapping my dressing gown for a proper dress, and my kitchen for the studio while I keep Ciara’s seat warm while she’s on maternity leave.

“I first started there 15 years ago and did every job from making the tea for the guests to writing the scripts for the presenters (which they mostly ignored! Mark Cagney I’m looking at you!)

” It’s the best place to learn and I’m looking forward to learning even more there on this second lap.

“And then it’ll be back to the mothership, Xpose. Listen I’ll be lucky if I make it to the end of the first show. How early does it start again?! Lucky I gave up sleep years ago! See you in a week!”

Karen will be appearing on Ireland AM from next Monday, March 11th.
