Grainne Seoige is swapping the glamour of Irish telly for diamonds... It's the Dredge

All the best of the day’s celebrity dirt.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.

Grainne Seoige is leaving TV after almost 20 years to become a diamond dealer. And Irish telly has just become a little less glamorous :(

File Photo Grainne Seoige has revealed that she is to take a step back from television presenting in favour of chasing a new career as a diamond dealer.

Speaking to the Irish Independent, Seoige said she’s grand with leaving behind the bright lights of TV:

I think ‘for everything a season’. I’ve had a ball with what I’ve been a part of. One door has to close for another one to open and that’s how these things are.

The Galwegian launched her new business, Grace Diamonds, in New York yesterday – it’s an appointment-only service for customers who to design their own diamond rings.

Coldplay’s Croke Park date sold out in just a half an hour this morning. Whew!

The band is playing the stadium on July 8 next year, their first Irish gig in six years. Understandably, there was great excitement:

And understandably, the fans who didn’t manage to bag tickets are extremely disappointed.

Maybe Chris Martin and the boys will do a Garth and schedule a couple more dates for us? #DoAGarth, #DoAGarth!

Kylie Jenner’s been showing off her new pink hair on Instagram. Maybe this is the start of a belated emo phase?

It’s not quite pink, not quite blonde, and if she was 70 years old, we’d be calling it a pink rinse.

Where she goes, millions of other girls will doubtless follow.
