The future of Angela Scanlon's Saturday night chat show Ask Me Anything has been thrown into doubt with Strictly Come Dancing coming up.
The 39-year-old has rejigged her work schedule to devote herself to Strictly Come Dancing which returns to BBC One this autumn.
It is not clear if her RTÉ chat show will return as she is preparing to put everything into Strictly Come Dancing, according to reports.
"Strictly takes nothing but total commitment," a source told the Irish Mail on Sunday. "It can be exhausting and challenging; both physically and mentally.
"It requires total and utter dedication. Angela is well aware of this, and she intends to give it everything."

Angela's show has been running for three seasons and it is a project the broadcaster "really threw herself into".
"But as it currently stands, we have not heard from RTÉ if it will return for another run," a spokesperson for Angela told Extra.ie.
They were unable to confirm if Ask Me Anything would be making a comeback for season four.

Angela, a busy mum of two, also fronts a BBC home improvement show called Your Home Made Perfect.
She was announced as part of the Strictly Come Dancing line-up earlier this month and will be competing against stars like Les Dennis, Angela Rippon, Zara McDermott and Ellie Leach.
Angela actually has a dancing background and even worked as a professional in a US show.
In 2001 Angela trained with the O'Shea Irish Dance Company and performed all over the world.
She later landed a role as a dancer on a US show and performed in the Irish Thunder dance show at Busch Gardens Williamsburg in Virginia.
However, she said: "I've never done any of these dances in my life, bar a drunken jive at a family wedding. So, it certainly feels like there is room to learn and to really push myself."
Will the redheaded beauty go on to be Ireland's first-ever Strictly Come Dancing winner?
Strictly Come Dancing lands on BBC One later this year on a date yet to be announced.
