The Late Late Show is set to pay a special tribute to the late cervical cancer campaigner Vicky Phelan on Friday night's show following her tragic death.
The 48 year old sadly passed away on Monday at Milford Hospice in Limerick after she was diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2014, which led to her exposing the Cervical Check scandal.
On this week's Late Late Show, The Stunning are set to appear to perform a special musical tribute to Vicky as she was known to be a huge fan.
The Limerick native was among the hundreds of women impacted by the CervicalCheck scandal. Vicky underwent a smear test in 2011, and was given the all-clear. However, in 2014, she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. It wasn't until 2017 that Vicky was informed that the initial test was incorrect.

Vicky sued Clinical Pathology Laboratories Inc, Austin, Texas for the incorrect result and the case settled for €2.5 million.
Since becoming ill, Vicky has been a fervent advocate for women's health in Ireland. She was also one of the founding members of the 221+ support group.
