Breaking down: Laura Whitmore released her emotions during an appearance on It Takes Two on Sunday night
Looking stylish in a semi-sheer geometric print dress, her hair and make-up flawless as usual, she started tearing up as she watched her performances.
'I was okay until you showed me that - I was fine,' the blonde beauty laughed as she wiped away a tear.
As dance partner Giovanni Pernice gave her a comforting hug, she jokingly told host Zoe Ball: 'Why did you have to show me that? That was mean!'

The nation watched as Laura fought back tears after stumbling through her samba routine on Saturday night's episode of Strictly Come Dancing.
And her misstep proved to be costly, as she became the seventh contestant to be voted off the BBC One show on Sunday, after judges voted unanimously to send her home, following a bottom two dance-off against Ore Oduba.
As she learned of her fate, an emotional Laura told co-host Tess Daly of her time on the show: 'I don't think anyone realises how much goes on here, the make-up, the costume, everything and just to be part of that for a little while is amazing.'

Her professional dance partner, Giovanni Pernice, told the Irish TV personality: 'I would like to say again thank you for being such a great partner, an amazing person to work with, you teach me a lot and I will never ever forget this journey.'
The blonde beauty and Giovanni were named in the bottom two alongside Ore and his professional dance partner Joanne Clifton.
While Laura and Giovanni did their best to impress as they danced away to Bamboleo by Gipsy Kings, Ore and Joanne's salsa to Vicki Sue Robinson's Turn The Beat Around proved to be more impressive.

In explaining his decision to pick sports presenter Ore as the one to save, Craig Revel Horwood said: 'One couple danced the best I've ever seen them dance and I think was probably their personal best; but for me, the dance of the night and who I would like to save was Ore and Joanne.'
Echoing his sentiment, fellow judge Darcey Bussell said: 'I think both couples danced exceptionally well tonight and it makes it very difficult.
'But I'd like to save the couple that I believe and know performed their best, a finished performance, was Ore and Joanne.'

Added Bruno Tonioli: 'First off, let me say this wasn't a dance off, it was a dance treat. You both danced with such vibrancy, energy and entertainment value, it's like splitting hairs here.
'We didn't put you there, if you didn't vote, don't moan. But I have to pick one out of the two that in a way outshone everyone else, and that couple was Ore and Joanne.'
Head Judge Len Goodman said he agreed with his colleagues and that he would have also saved Ore and Joanne, sealing Laura's fate.
