In Ireland, what week commencing date saw "Rein Me In" rise to number one?

The story behind the answer

In Ireland, “Rein Me In” rose to number one in the week commencing 13 February 2026.

The Official Irish Singles Chart records chart weeks by their commencing date, and the 13 February issue covered 13–19 February 2026. The duet topped that chart after spending 33 consecutive weeks in Ireland’s top 40, making its rise unusually slow and steady.

The result gave Sam Fender his first Irish number-one single. For Olivia Dean, it was her second Irish chart-topper, following “Man I Need,” which had spent three consecutive weeks at number one in September 2025.

The date can be confused with the publication or announcement date of a chart report. In this question, the intended answer is the chart’s week-commencing date, not the later date on which news coverage or a chart summary appeared.
