Ruth Langsford was left in tears and needing a hug from one of her Loose Women co-stars, after breaking down over a 'harrowing' clip shown during Tuesday's episode of the ITV show and being reminded of her own family.
For the second day in succession, ex This Morning favourite Ruth was at the head of the panel as the lunchtime discussion programme took to the air in its usual 12.30pm timeslot. After kicking off with a chat about 'avoiding' your family, Ruth then moved things on to a much sadder note, centering on a tragic Coronation Street, storyline involving actress Maureen Lipman.
Cerberus, the greyhound belonging to Maureen's character Evelyn Plummer, had to be put down after eating an Eccles cake from the floor of Roy's cafe and suffering kidney failure, with the heartbreaking scenes leaving many fans of the long-running show incredibly moved.
