TV Presenter


Karen Koster is a TV presenter and co-host of The Six O'Clock show, Virgin Media's flagship nightly live entertainment show. She joined the chat show after two years as the co-anchor of Ireland AM, Ireland's long running breakfast show.


Before the early starts, Karen hosted the nightly entertainment show Xposé which saw her interview the biggest names in film, music and fashion, and report from red carpet premieres and events across the world including the Oscars, the BAFTAs, the Cannes Film Festival and New York Fashion Week.

In 2017, Karen authored & produced her own documentary, Mammy Guilt, which saw her explore the challenges faced by working women raising children. The programme led to an IFTA nomination and a podcast series, Labours of Love, where Karen interviewed high profile mothers about their own experiences.

During her career over the last two decades, Karen has hosted entertainment specials such as One Direction - The Story So Far, Saoirse Ronan - The Story So Far, Karen Koster Meets Bond, TV3s Toy Show and the National Lottery Awards.

Karen holds a BA in English and French from Trinity College and is mum to three very energetic children.
