My VIP Loves sees our favourite celebrities share significant moments in their life through a series of photographs.
2FM’s Lottie Ryan shares her favourite photographs with VIP, and the stories behind them!
Awareness: Pictured with my colleague Keith Walsh as part of a #HPVAware public health campaign to raise awareness of HPV. In Ireland, HPV infection casued up to 420 cancer cases in men and women per year between 2010 and 2014.
Glam Day: One thing I love to do for a little ‘me time’ is pop into my hairdresser, Ceira Lambert, for a little TLC. Sounds simple, but i think sometimes something as simple as a little blow dry can be very relaxing when you have a hectic schedule. I wear Great Lengths hair extensions which I absolutely adore, so I love getting them styled as a treat.
Italian Wanderlust: I love Italy. It’s kind of become my second home! I head over to the village my husband Fabio’s family is from every year. the food is ahhhhh-mazing! And I love getiing to just chill and recharge my batteries in the sun! I went over in August this year and I am already planning my return!
Giggity Giggity: I love going to concerts! I worked in the 3Arena for many years and consequently was around live music for a long time. There’s something about being in a big crowd and singing the lyrics of a song back at the artist that gives me butterflies in my tummy. One gig that I was blown away by this summer was Taylor Swift in Croke Park. I went with my sisters Bonnie and Babs and my brother Elliot (pictured) and we all loved it!
Telly Time: One of my favourite experiences this year was getting to be a part of Can’t Stop Dancing on RTE One, which is the spin off show of Dancing With The Stars. I’ve been a huge fan of the show since it started so getting to be on set and part of the team was a dream come true for me. I loved every minute of it! The glitter, the sequins, the costumes – it was all fab!
Do What You Love: I love my job. LOVE it. And this year I got to cover my buddy Jennifer Zamparelli’s maternity leave. So for nine months it was myself, Bernard O’Shea and Keith Walsh presenting Breakfast Republic from 6-10am from Monday to Friday on 2FM. It was a LOT of fun… so much so that i begged Jen to have another baby!
Best Night Of The Year: The Peter Mark VIP Style Awards is one of my favourite nights of the year! It’s such a glam night and everyone is always in flying form! I went with my mum and my two sisters, Bonnie and Babs, this year. We made it a real girls night out and spent the afternoon getting ready together! This year we all decided to coordinate and wear white for a bit of fun.
