Lucy Kennedy set to host Caitlyn Jenner in new TV series
Instagram post sees Kennedy let slip the identity of her big-name guest for the new Living With series Lucy Kennedy has let the cat out of the bag as to who her biggest guest will be on her at-home-with-the-stars TV series – Keeping Up With The Kardashians' Caitlyn Jenner. Not only did Lucy confide in friends about the mystery celeb she spent time with in Los Angeles a couple of weeks ago, but she also hinted at the location by posting a picture of a swimming pool on her Instagram stories. A reverse image search of the pool shows it's in Caitlyn's Malibu mansion. The pair first met when they both attended the Benefit Awards in Dublin in 2018, where Caitlyn received the Beauty Icon Award and Lucy was named Best Female TV Star. The Irish presenter has since spent the past several years trying to persuade Caitlyn to take part in her 'Living With Lucy' show and was thrilled earlier this year to finally get the go-ahead. Caitlyn with the Kardashian clan Caitlyn now lives in a €3m mansion in the foothills of the mountains in Malibu on the northern outskirts of LA. She first found fame as Bruce Jenner, who won the decathlon at the Olympic Games in Montreal in 1976. Married three times, Jenner's most famous relationship was with Kris Kardashian. The couple were married from 1991 to 2015. The couple's children together include Kylie and Kendall, while Caitlyn's step-children are Kim and Khloe. she also has 23 grandkids. In an American TV interview with Diane Sawyer in April 2015, Jenner came out as a trans woman, saying that she had dealt with gender dysphoria since her youth and that, 'for all intents and purposes, I'm a woman'. Jenner wore women's clothing for many years and took hormone replacement therapy but stopped after her romance with Kris Kardashian became more serious, leading to their marriage. Lucy's story from Insta Caitlyn said in 2015 that she has never been sexually attracted to men, but always to women, and that, given the difficulty that many people have understanding the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity, she would identify as asexual for the time being. She underwent cosmetic procedures and completed gender-affirming surgery in January 2017. The star took part in 2019's Celebrity Big Brother, part of a cast that included Kirstie Alley, Ryan Thomas, and Roxanne Pallett. She is a fervent supporter of the Republican party in the United States and once tried to run for Governor of California. The most recent series of Living With Lucy was screened last year and guests included former model turned businesswoman Katie Price, aka Jordan, RTÉ sports presenter and Dancing With The Stars favourite Des Cahill, Coronation Street legend Simon Gregson (Steve McDonald), Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby, Dublin comedian Andrew Maxwell and former Millwall and Ireland footballer turned RTÉ soccer pundit Richard Sadlier. Living With Lucy first aired in 2008 and the premise of the show is that Kennedy spends a weekend with a celebrity in their home or a favourite location of theirs. Lucy and Caitlyn News in 90 Seconds - June 22nd The first three series series were screened on RTÉ and featured Jade Goody, Samantha Mumba, Brian McFadden, David Norris, Calum Best and Dáithí Ó Sé. The second series included Shane Lynch, Don Baker, Sonia O'Sullivan and Adele King. For series three, Lucy moved in with David Gest, Simon Delaney, Derek Acorah, Jermaine Jackson, Vanessa Feltz and Crystal Swing. After finishing its run on RTÉ in 2010, TV3 (now Virgin Media) started screening the series in 2016, with six seasons in consecutive years bar a break during Covid. Her 2016 season featured Kerry Katona, Al Porter, Jedward, Brendan Grace, Finbar Furey and Shane Long. For her next series she visited Davy Fitzgerald, Katie Hopkins, Michael-Healy Rae, Daniella Westbrook, Dickie Rock and Sarah Harding. Then in 2018 she hung out with Christy Dignam, Nathan Carter, Gemma Collins, Kellie Maloney and Ivan Yates. Among those who participated in 2019 were Gráinne Seoige, John Connors, Nadine Coyle, Barry Keoghan and Deirdre O'Kane. Due to Covid and lockdowns the 2020 season had Lucy hosting celebs in a hired cottage in Co Meath. Those who stayed with her there included Paul McGrath, Greg O'Shea, Amy Huberman, Lynn Ruane, Ian Dempsey & Mario Rosenstock, and repeat guest Adele King (Twink). The 2021 series featured Pat Spillane, Rachel Allen, Hughie Maughan, Paul Gascoigne, Michelle Heaton and Rory O'Neill (Panti). Six of Lucy's guests have since sadly died — Jade Goody, Sarah Harding, Brendan Grace, David Gest, Christy Dignam and Dickie Rock. Lucy (49) previously told the Sunday World that the deaths of Jade and Sarah in particular struck a chord with her. 'Both so young,' she reflected. 'I lived with Jade Goody six months before she was diagnosed. I remember I was talking to her about going into the Big Brother house in India and she asked my advice and I said 'Actually, I wouldn't'. 'She went into the house and that's where she found out she had the cancer 'Poor Sarah. It was a few years later I lived with her. Young women. It's so strange. I don't know why, but I always assume that when its someone who's well known they can get the best treatment and have access to the best surgeons and miracles can happen. But the sad reality is it doesn't matter who you are or what you have — unfortunately sometimes cancer just wins.'

Lucy Kennedy responds to rumours she will be the next host of RTE's Liveline
TV star Lucy Kennedy has broken her silence about being tipped as the next host of Liveline – saying she is 'happy' where she is. The Living With Lucy presenter was tipped to return to RTÉ for the first time since 2012 as a replacement for Joe Duffy on the RTÉ Radio 1 show, according to Ladbrokes. Odds slashed from 8/1 to 3/1 for Lucy Kennedy to switch allegiances from Classic Hits to RTÉ Radio One and take up the iconic Liveline slot. Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes said: 'From Living with Lucy to Liveline with Lucy, odds have been slashed on the Classic Hits presenter to move from the mornings to the mid-afternoon and try to fill Joe's shoes on Liveline.' But Lucy dismissed the bookies odds, saying she is happy where she is. Speaking exclusively to the Irish Mirror, she said: 'I'm happy where I am for now, doing the breakfast show on Ireland's Classic Hits with naughty Colm (Hayes).' The popular presenter previously hosted a morning radio show alongside Baz Ashmawy on the RTÉ airwaves from 2010 to 2012 before leaving the station. Last year, she admitted 2FM bosses did ask the Dubliner if she would consider returning to the station amid a host of presenters leaving. 'I was asked if I'd like to put my hat in, and I said no,' says Lucy, who can now be heard on Ireland's Classic Hits Radio on weekday mornings with Colm Hayes. 'Myself and Baz did Weekend Breakfast there for three years, and we loved it, I really enjoyed it. 'But I'm very happy at Classic Hits — the station has been good to me and I also believe that we've got the perfect audience now,' she said at the time. Since Joe Duffy's decision to leave the staple phone-in show, rumours have been rife about who may take over the Dubliner's spot. RTÉ Today host Daithi O Se, Katie Hannon, Miriam O'Callaghan and Jennifer Zamparelli have also been tipped to go into talks with RTÉ bosses.
