Late Late Show host Patrick Kielty shared how much he’ll be earning from his upcoming gig.

The 52-year-old comedian is best-known for presenting the original Love Island, as well as Fame Academy and previously co-presented on ITV’s This Morning.

In a statement, the TV personality confirmed he has signed a three-season deal beginning this September.

He will be paid for a 30-show season, with any additional shows being paid on a pro-rata basis.

The new host said he will be paid €250,000 (£216,000) per 30-show season and has signed a contract for three seasons.

‘The contract allows me to submit flight and accommodation expenses, but I’ve waived this,’ Patrick said.

Dermot O’Leary has shared a gushing tribute and said co-hosting an entire week of This Morning was a ‘privilege’  amid the ongoing Phillip Schofield scandal. 

The host, 50, who has been fronting the show alongside Alison Hammond, 48, took to Instagram with a slew of snaps from his busy stint in front of the camera.

Phillip, 61, quit ITV with immediate effect after admitted to cheating on wife Stephanie with the man, while he admitted deceiving his ITV employees and colleagues about his affair.

Dermot playfully posed alongside Alison in the snaps as well as with a number of the show’s celebrity guests. 

The duo beamed, shaking off any signs of drama, with actors Ian McKellan, Roger Allam and the Spitting Image puppets.
