Martin Roberts in tears as he shares sad news with friends and fans

Fans have stepped up to support Homes Under the Hammer presenter Martin Roberts after he shared sad family news. Taking to Instagram the presenter fought tears in an emotional video as he revealed his father has died.

He announced his father died peacefully at the age of 90. In the candid footage, the TV star described losing a parent is "something we all have to deal with" and explained how "alone and horrible" he felt, the Mirror reports.

"So I don't know if I should really be posting this video or not but, I guess people deal with things in different ways." He said. " This is a very private thing but I kind of just need to surround myself with as many people as I can who care right now. "My dad died yesterday. He was 90 and he had a great life and he died peacefully, he died at home and he wasn't in pain so that's great but it doesn't... well it does help but it doesn't help right now," Martin then broke down.
