It was one of the biggest faux pas to rock RTÉ in recent years and now Miriam O’Callaghan has finally revealed the events that led up to that leaving party photo.
The Prime Time presenter, along with some of the biggest names at the station including Brian Dobson, David McCullagh and Bláithnaid Ní Chofaigh was embroiled in a scandal after it was alleged they attended a leaving party for a colleague despite gatherings of the sort being in breach of COVID restrictions at the time.
The alleged leaving party was for a receptionist named Phil who was retiring that day. Pictures that emerged from the incident show Miriam and David posing for a picture which showed O’Callaghan and her colleague in breach of social distancing guidelines.
