She said: “@siomhaniruairc and myself are heading off to An Ghaeltacht to make S2 of @gra.ar.an.tra with @jamesalankavanagh.”
The series features Bean and Man Ti, Siomha Ni Ruairc and James Kavanagh who will throw open the doors of their Love Teach.
Meanwhile, Grainne will take on the role of the ‘Cinnire Gra’ – the ‘Captain of Love’ – and she will be keeping a watchful and expert eye on the singletons.
The 10 singletons taking part in the show will be put through their paces to learn Irish to find love.
Contestants will split their time between flirting and focloir with the ultimate aim of being crowned ‘Couple with the most focail’ to walk away with a large cash prize.
Through fun tasks, cheeky challenges and romantic rendezvous couples will compete all while dusting up on their cupla focal.
Grainne’s fans and friends all took to the comments to share their love and wish her well.
Martin said: “Not going to be the same without you. You bring a level of professionalism & beauty that is unmatched by anyone else.”
