Holly Willoughby and Julia Bradbury in tears over TV star's breast cancer battle and awful moment children asked if her disease is 'contagious'

Holly Willoughby was left wiping away tears on Thursday's episode of This Morning as Julia Bradbury recalled the emotional moment her children asked whether her cancer diagnosis was 'contagious'. Holly and Phillip were joined by the TV presenter in the ITV studio to discuss her new documentary Julia Bradbury: Breast Cancer and Me and why she felt the need to make the hour-long film.

At one point, Julia spoke about being reunited with her kids after having her surgery and a clip from the documentary was shown. As the camera cut back to the studio, Holly's voice was on edge as she admitted: "Well that got me..." and she definitely had a tear in her eye, the Mirror reports.

"No, I can't look at that without it getting me," Julia admitted as Holly replied: "Yeah I'm not surprised!" Julia continued: "The kids have been amazing and they've made friends with my new boob and they say, 'mummy it doesn't feel the same', and I say, 'no it doesn't feel the same but I'm here and that's what it's done'."
