An eclectic mix of guests feature on tonight’s The Late Late Show so there should be something for everyone.

Former Ireland and Leinster No 8 Jamie Heaslip's professional rugby career came to a premature end thanks to injury earlier this year. He’ll join Ryan Tubridyt to chat about his Grand Slam and Heineken Cup winning career. He’ll also be filling viewers in on how retirement is treating him and, as he and wife Sheena O’Buachalla prepare to welcome their first baby, how he’s preparing for fatherhood.

 

As Prince Harry and Meghan Markle prepare to walk down the aisle for a wedding watched all around the world, long time chronicler of the British royal family Andrew Morton will be in studio. Having written a new book about Meghan, charting her life from growing up in California to joining the highest ranks of England's royal house, he’ll be filling viewers in on what’s in store for her.

Eurovision winners Johnny Logan and Secret Garden will be singing You Raise Me Up, and there’ll be new music from the band Ash.

 

Sixteen-year-old Ian O’Connell talks about how his life dramatically changed when he was paralysed from the shoulders down in a bike accident last year. In the wake of new documentary My Trans Life, another teenage guest, Luke O’Reilly Kane, and his mum Maura and Nicky Manning share the story of the struggles they have encountered since coming out as trans.

Plus viewers will learn whether the budding restorers taking part in this year’s Late Late Show Antiques Special were able to make a silk purse from a sow’s ear with their old crocks.
