Emma Willis, 43, has admitted her hosting stint on W show Delivering Babies has caused her and her other half Matt Willis, 36, to get very emotional. The Voice UK presenter experiences the training process on a maternity ward in the programme and helps the midwives to deliver newborns.
“Every time I’ve seen a baby being born I cry,” Emma divulged in an interview with The Sun.
The star went on to reveal she tuned into the show with her husband and he couldn’t help but shed a tear over the episode alongside her.
She recalled: “I was sat on the sofa last night and my eyes were welling up.
“Matt was sat next to me, he was crying his eyes out.

"I think everybody should witness birth first-hand at some point in their life. Everybody.”
The mum-of-three also admitted Matt “choked up” when they welcomed their first baby Trixie into the world and that the moment was captured on camera.
Emma showed the clip to their friends and Matt’s reaction convinced them to wait to find out the sex of their baby.
“We do watch it back,” she told the publication. “We have friends at the minute who are expecting their first baby and the mum doesn’t want to find out the sex of the baby and the dad is obviously like, ‘Come on’.
“I said: ‘Watch the birth of Trixie and see if that will change your mind’.
“And he watched it, and when he hears Matt kind of choke up going, ‘It’s a girl’, he was like, ‘We’re not finding out, I need that moment in my life of surprise’.”
Elsewhere, Emma opened up about problems she encountered with Matt when he went into rehab for alcohol and drug addiction.
The couple have been married since 2008, but the Busted singer went into rehab shortly after they started dating in 2005 and returned several times over a period of three years before achieving sobriety the year they tied the knot.

Emma admitted her husband’s addiction was “a really hard thing to understand”.
She became tearful as she told the Telegraph: “What really changed him was our daughter, Isabelle. Isabelle was his real…
“Oh God, I’m going to start crying. Isabelle was his real focus.
“He was already doing it [recovery] himself, then she arrived and that made him even more determined.”
The TV personality was then quizzed by the publication about her advice for those who are struggling with addiction.
She admitted: “I wish I knew, I’d make a b****y fortune. I’m not an addict, so it’s a really hard thing to understand.
“Matt probably first went to rehab [in 2005] to get us all off his back. Then your relationship progresses and you realise that there is a real issue, and it’s not just a young kid who has got a lot of money very quickly.
“But until he realised it had to change, there’s nothing I could have done. Nothing.”
The Voice airs tonight at 8.30pm on ITV.
