Ryan Tubridy has sent a big virtual hug to Toy Show star Adam King after he broke his leg over the weekend.
Little Adam, six, stole the hearts of the nation late last year when his virtual hugs grabbed all the headlines during the Late Late Toy Show.
But his dad announced on Monday morning that Adam, who has brittle bones, took a fall over the weekend and was left with a broken femur.
Adam is now back at home in good spirits with thousands of messages from people all over Ireland wishing the boy well, and Tubs sent his own message on his radio show this morning.
The RTE star said: “I want to send a lot of love and a big hug to Adam King
“I just wanted to send Adam particularly, and his whole family, all the love in the world.
