RTE star Maura Derrane got stuck while exploring with her son and left her fans "dying laughing". The popular host is currently on a well deserved break from Today until September and has been enjoying some quality time with her family on her summer holidays. Maura recently brought her ten-year-old son Cal back to her family home in Inis Mór in the Aran Islands.

The Galway beauty took to Instagram last night to share a hilarious video of herself and Cal having some fun in a field near her house. The 53-year-old explained: "Showing Cal around some of the fields where I used to hang out with my sisters when I was a child on Inis Mór. Obvs it’s not today or yesterday!!" In the clip, Maura, wearing pink leggings, a black coat and a navy hat, attempted to hop through the fence like she did when she was younger.

However, Maura couldn't get through and shouted out: "Let's see if I can still squish through. I'm stuck in the gate!" Maura's son Cal was in stitches laughing as he told her: "Enough chit chat." The Today host joked: "Oh no I'm too fat to get through it, I've only one good hand.

" Maura explained: "I used to slither through these gates like a snake. God help me, I had convinced myself I could still do it, and also wanted to prove to Cal that it was possible. "How wrong I was!" Maura's friends and fans were all in hysterics laughing in the comment section.
