Strictly's Claudia Winkleman forced to step in as Carlos Gu sobs on show

Strictly Come Dancing fans were left heartbroken for pro Carlos Gu on Saturday night.

During the latest episode, which was Blackpool week, pro dancer Carlos, 30, and Angela Scanlon danced the Argentine Tango to Back To Black by Amy Winehouse. The duo left the judges seriously impressed, scoring an incredible three 10s and one 8, totalling 38 points.

After the routine and fantastic feedback, Carlos and Angela, 39, spoke to host Claudia Winkleman, where Carlos broke down in tears. The emotional professional dancer said: "I'm so proud of her! I'm so happy the judges gave the comment to her like that, she's been down actually quite a few weeks and that, I'm just really happy" to which a touched Angela wiped his tears away.

The duo then received their 38 points score to which Carlos broke down in tears again with Claudia, 51, insisting: "No, I don't want you to cry!" with Carlos admitting: "I'm not, I'm tears of happiness!" Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: "Carlos crying made me sob btw #strictly!", a different account put: "I love Carlos so much. He’s so wholesome. #Strictly!" while another viewer wrote: "carlos crying because it’s been a hard few weeks and he’s so happy that angela has finally got the praise she deserves my sweet boy,,, #strictly."
