Strictly Come Dancing star Tess Daly left 'sobbing on motorway' saying 'it's broken my heart'


Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly has opened up about the emotional moment she said goodbye to her eldest daughter, Phoebe, after she left home to start university

The TV presenter, who also has a 15 year old daughter Amber with husband Vernon Kay, confessed to "sobbing" on the drive back after waving goodbye to Phoebe as she embarked on her new journey studying film and television. Tess went on to share that seeing Phoebe with all her bags and a plate and cutlery set just for one was a heartbreaking sight, adding: "I was heartbroken just dropping her off and waving goodbye, but it was fine because she was back after a couple of weeks, visiting. Fans can look forward to seeing familiar faces like Karen Hauer, the show's longest-serving female pro, Dianne Buswell, Johannes Radebe, Gorka Marquez and Katya Jones back on the dance floor.
