Former 2fm star Eoghan McDermott and girlfriend Aoife Melia break up rsvplive.ie - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from rsvplive.ie Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
Eoghan McDermott was considered a rising star at RTE with a bright broadcasting future in his sights. But his sudden departure this week has left his 2FM listeners in the dark – and his co-presenter with an on-air gap to fill.
The 37-year-old Dubliner has worked in broadcasting for most of his career, making an early name for himself on the successful pop music station Spin FM. He did a stint in London, becoming friendly with Niall Horan and other up and coming Irish stars.
Having worked his way up, McDermott started to make waves and his quirky ways and youth captured the attention of RTÉ. He very quickly became omnipresent – popping up on radio, presenting a spin-off show to The Voice reality talent show and taking on other flagship RTÉ offerings.
