IRELAND AM star Tommy Bowe looked happier than ever as he celebrated his birthday in style while abroad.
The BBC Sport pundit jetted over to Cardiff, Wales, to report live from the sidelines as Ireland claimed a third Six Nations win in Principality Stadium yesterday.
And the day was made extra special for Tommy as he turned 41.
The Virgin Media host took to Instagram last night to share some snaps from his brilliant birthday at the match.
Tommy captioned his post: “What a way to celebrate your birthday!
“Classic test match and catching up with old friends. Exactly what the 6 Nations is all about!“
The dad-of-two also shared a major throwback snap of him at his first ever international match.
Tommy thanked his pal Donncha O’Callaghan for the photo saying: “Thanks @theoffload_podcast for the first cap photo.”
The popular presenter’s fans all loved his blonde highlights in the hilarious picture and raced to the comment section with birthday wishes.
Marna wrote: “Happy birthday! I love the picture of baby Tommy with frosted tips!”
Fergal said: “Happy birthday Tommy. Hope you had a great day.”
Nuala commented: “Happy birthday Tommy!”
Leona remarked: “Happy belated birthday @tommybowe. Hope you had a fab weekend and everyone is doing well.”
Tommy, who is renowned for his cheeky sense of humour, put himself forward to take part in a hysterical segment on Ireland AM recently.
Professional Irish jockey Paul Townend appeared on the show and brought a mechanical race horse along for the presenters to try out.
GIDDY UP
Tommy jumped at the chance to get up on the mechanical horse and immediately had the Ireland AM crew in fits of laughter.
As the 40-year-old got himself positioned and secure with a helmet, he asked Paul: “Okay so what do I now?”
Paul sarcastically replied: “Well, you are going to hang on for dear life Tommy.”
Tommy’s face dropped as he nervously responded: “Oh please don’t go too fast now.”
Paul then pressed start on the mechanical horse and Tommy began to move as if he was riding the horse.
Tommy smiled from ear to ear as he shouted: “Ah come on give it some welly Paul.”
