    This week’s guest is Roseanna Ruane, mother of Saoírse Ruane, who captured the hearts of Ireland when she appeared with Ryan on the Late Late Toy Show in 2020. Saoírse’s story inspired the launch of the Toy Show Appeal, raising millions for children's charities. Tragically, Saoírse passed away in March 2024 at the age of 12 after a prolonged fight with osteosarcoma, a rare bone cancer.
