Gemma Atkinson has been seen holding back tears as she gave an update following the heartbreaking death of her dog. The Hits Radio host announced at the end of June that her beloved pet pooch Norman had passed away.

At the time, she posted a moving video featuring pictures and clips of him from over the years with her and fellow dog Ollie, as well as Gemma's Strictly Come Dancing star fiancé Gorka Marquez and their two children, Mia and Thiago. "My beautiful boy Norman has passed away.

My heart is broken," she said. The Bury-born Hits Radio host went on to pay tribute to her much-loved pet who she said gave her her "first experience of being a mum and having someone other than myself to care for".
