Hulgraine has struggled with addiction

Kildare GAA footballer Mary Hulgraine will appear on the Late Late Show Tonight.

The Moorefield woman will talk about how she overcame alcohol and substance addiction issues, and her road back to the Kildare Senior Women's team.

Footballer Mary Hulgraine  has previously said she drank eight cans of beer before playing in an All-Ireland final as she battled with depression.

The Kildare goalkeeper saw her mental health plummet due to a mix of alcohol and tablets that she took to numb the pain she felt.

In 2016, Mary and the Kildare intermediate ladies team won an All-Ireland title and her performances earned her an All Star.

But despite how good things looked on the outside, Mary was struggling immensely.
