Huge congratulations to Maura Higgins who has just landed a TV role!

Maura, 30, will be presenting Glow Up Ireland which airs on RTÉ. Glow Up Ireland is similar to the UK version on BBC, which sees a group of talented make-up artists create jaw-dropping transformations to be crowned the next big make-up star.

We cannot wait to see Maura front this!

Former Love Island star Maura said: "I'm so excited to be the presenter of the first-ever Glow Up Ireland.

"Having watched the last few series of the show in the UK this is such an amazing opportunity and the fact that this is my first presenting job and it's in Ireland is so overwhelming.

"It's such a pinch-me moment to be doing this back in my home country. I actually can't believe it. Obviously, we're expecting a very high standard of Irish talent to come forward."

The show will feature 10 hopeful contestants and is expected to air in autumn. And if you fancy applying for the show, there's still time!

"Applications are now open so get in touch to be in with a chance of landing one of the top ten coveted spots on the show," Maura added.

"Deadline for application is Sunday, June 20 so get in touch immediately!"
