Mark Wright broke down in tears as he appeared on This Morning to discuss the importance of CPR. The former The Only Way is Essex star opened up on the ITV daytime show about a traumatic experience that saw him having to perform the potentially life-saving act on a stranger.
Mark shared how he was on holiday in Tenerife with actress wife Michelle Keegan when a fellow guest at the hotel they were staying in had a heart attack and later died. The 35-year-old emotionally told hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield: "I did all I could, but he was there for a while before I got there."
As he began to choke up, Holly interjected and said "Like you said you've got someone's life under your hand and it doesn't get any more real than that. And sometimes it works out." She then turned to her co-host Phillip who also had to perform CPR on his father many years ago.
