Doireann Garrihy reveals why she is 'a bit peeved' with Donncha O'Callaghan

Doireann Garrihy has admitted she is 'a bit peeved' with her former breakfast co-host Donncha O'Callaghan at the moment.
The presenter co-hosted 2FM Breakfast with the former rugby international as well as Carl Mullan for a number of years before announcing her departure from the station early last year.
Following news of her exit, Donncha announced he was leaving the station also with a schedule shake-up keeping Carl on breakfast radio alongside new hosts Roz Purcell and Aisling Bonnar.

Since her departure from 2FM, Doireann got married and then returned to the station in her very own drivetime show, 2FM Drive with Doireann Garrihy.
The presenter also hosts two podcasts with Carl Mullan appearing on the latest episode of her conversational podcast, Doireann and Friends.
During their chat, the pair discussed the friendship they forged on the breakfast show, with Carl admitting he had a 'right cry' to his wife when Doireann announced her exit from the show. Doireann Garrihy, Donncha O'Callaghan and Carl Mullan. Pic: Doireann Garrihy/Instagram
'I was so afraid of us not maintaining that contact with each other,' he admitted, before clarifying that they are still very much in contact.
The admission prompted Doireann to scold Donncha for being 'the worst' to keep contact up, as she confessed she does get sad that they don't see the Cork native as much.
Carl pointed out that Donncha won't let them know if he's in Dublin 'because he hates Dublin so much.'
The comment led Doireann to sharing that she doesn't like letting Donncha know if she's in Cork because she doesn't want to pressure him into meeting her, but is 'peeved' with him because he did the same recently.
'He was at Bloom, which is literally my doorstep,' she said, 'I was like, 'You are!! I would have had you in for tea.' So he knows that I'm a bit peeved at the moment with him.'
