Dancing With The Stars judge Loraine Barry will not be taking part in this week's episode of the show after the death of her mother Caroline earlier this week.
She announced the passing of her "much adored mam" earlier in the week and is taking time off from the celebrity dancing competition.
Her fellow judges, Brian Redmond, Arthur Gourounlian and Karen Byrne, will appear on the judging panel for Sunday’s show.
In an Instagram story, Dancing With The Stars said, "RTÉ, Shinawil and all the cast and crew of Dancing With The Stars would like to extend their deepest sympathies to Loraine and her family on the passing of Loraine’s much adored Mam. May she in peace.
"In light of this sad news Loraine will not appear on the show tomorrow night. Brian, Arthur and Karen will judge the remaining ten contestants’ performances for Movie Week."
Loraine posted a picture of her mother, saying, "Our beautiful Mammy passed away this morning at 10.30am. A Mother’s love is like no other …."
