A former employee of [RTÉ](/source/RT%C3%89), she was at one time a well-recognised face on the broadcaster's television channels, having presented *[Off the Rails](/source/Off_the_Rails_(TV_series))*, *Marry Me* and *[The Podge and Rodge Show](/source/The_Podge_and_Rodge_Show)*. She also made an appearance in the [genealogy](/source/Genealogy) series *[Who Do You Think You Are?](/source/Who_Do_You_Think_You_Are%3F_(Irish_TV_series))*, learning that her grandmother was an illegitimate child and that a deceased distant relative was accused of murdering her husband, but later found not guilty - over 160 years ago. She then went on to feature on *Celebrity Showhouse* broadcast on 29 December 2008. ## Career Flood worked as a continuity officer with national broadcaster RTÉ from 1997 to 2000, and was a presenter of Irish fashion television show *Off the Rails* for a number of years before receiving the axe in 2008.[1][2] Flood moved on to *Marry Me*, of which there were eight editions,[3] and has presented two editions of *The Podge and Rodge Show*,[4][5] For her research in the RTÉ series *Who Do You Think You Are?* she travelled through 19th-century Dublin, "taking in red light districts, millionaire solicitors, pawnbrokers, contested wills, illegitimate children and murder." She met historian David Nolan, who has written a history of Corballis House, where her granny was sent to stay and subsequently discovered she was born out of wedlock.[6] She appeared on the front cover of the *[RTÉ Guide](/source/RT%C3%89_Guide)* to promote the show,[7] and on *[Anonymous](/source/Anonymous_(TV_series))* as "Doreen Prendergast".[8] Flood has since found herself exposed and vulnerable at RTÉ.[9] ## Personal life In 2008, Flood announced the recent end of her three-year relationship with Michael Sharp, the manager of Denis Desmond's *Spirit* nightclub in Dublin.[10] She then began a new one with restaurateur, Ronan Ryan. Flood and Ryan appeared in the news in 2019 following a public battle with their mortgage provider over a house in which the couple had been living in [Clontarf](/source/Clontarf%2C_Dublin), Dublin. It was reported that the couple had been living in the property valued at €900,000 yet had not made a mortgage payment in over 9 years. Nevertheless, the couple refused to vacate the property.[11][12][13] ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** Daly, Susan (25 October 2008).
