RTE says it has no plans to bring back Ireland’s biggest TV star after negotiations with him broke down.
Ryan Tubridy has been at the centre of a controversy over the under declaration of his salary by €345,000 (£295,000) between 2017 and 2022.
The revelation sparked a backlash against the presenter – already the Irish broadcaster’s highest-paid star with a salary of €440,000 (£375,500) in 2021 – because they came at a time at which the cash-strapped broadcaster was making cuts elsewhere.
RTE director-general Kevin Bakhurst says Tubridy will not return to the channel after trust between the parties had “broken down”.
