Lauren Whelan is “thriving”!

Of course, she is! She’s the queen of Irish TikTok, she recently launched a podcast with her pal, Miriam Mullins and she has stars in her eyes.

Yes, she has one thing on her wish list and she’s determined to achieve it.

Speaking to STELLAR at this year’s Hayu InstaStar Awards, she gushes about following in Miriam’s footsteps.


Yes, Dancing with the Stars is on her vision board for 2025!

“I’m begging at this stage!” she jokes about her dream to appear on one of Ireland’s biggest shows.

“I would absolutely love to do that. Miriam’s been advocating for me to go on there. She said it was the best experience of her life.”

Of course, she’s a busy bee. On top of her social media career, she has launched her podcast with Miriam – Under the Influencers.

“We’ve only had one season, but it’s been brilliant. It’s the best thing I’ve ever started. Putting all your love and energy and effort into a project and seeing it do so well. It’s incredible. So we can’t wait for a second season,” she enthuses.

She is quick to add that the response has been “so, so good”.

“We got nominated for an InstaStar Award after just one season. Whenever we meet people they just say that they love it and it’s such a rewarding feeling. We’re so happy that we started it!”
