Brian O'Driscoll's appearance on the Late Late warmed the hearts of the nation

THE FORMER Irish rugby player turned up on Tubridy's couch to talk about the importance of donor cards.

Brian O'Driscoll appeared with Michaela Morley, a young girl he met in Temple Street's Children's Hospital to talk about a kidney donation Morley received.

Morley was just 6 years of age when she was on dialysis for her kidneys, however she obtained a kidney transplant and has since been rehabilitated.

The 13-year-old chatted with Ryan Tubridy about her life since receiving the transplant and about her growing friendship with O'Driscoll, who visited the Children's Hospital back in 2011.

Viewers at home were only delighted by the interview and championed Morley's strength.
