And it ended up being her time to be counselled as Phil and Holly Willoughby offered words of comfort.

Phil said: “We have been talking you through this for weeks.

“There are a hundred hugs for you when you go off camera today.”

Vanessa told the pair that Ben’s alleged infidelity was “a terrible shock” and “also a kind of gradual thing” as she pieced things together.

Vanessa continued: “I don’t want to dwell on the details, I really do want to focus on the future.”

Phil told her: “There really is a bright future for you.”

And Vanessa said: “I am telling myself there is a future, I really want there to be.”
