Robert Rinder choked up on Good Morning Britain as he paid tribute to his dog Rocco after his sudden death.
The guest GMB host was left heartbroken after his pet died last week. And on Monday he became emotional as he told ITV viewers what happened and spoke about his grief.
He told co-presenter Susanna Reid: "He was a friend of yours, like all dogs he could see the soul of somebody even where they may express their undivided indifference to them." Susanna told him: "I know how close you were to Rocco," while he admitted the loss of Rocco had left him feeling "lonely".
