Saoirse Ruane’s family is “heartbroken” after the Late Late Toy Show star received some difficult news from her consultant last week.

Saoirse from Athenry, Co Galway touched Toy Show viewers in 2020 when she shared the story of how she lost her right leg to cancer and learned to walk on a new prosthetic leg. Saoirse was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in 2019 and had a rare, life-threatening tumour on her leg, which was amputated.
