Anton’s tears
Meanwhile, earlier this year, the dancer teared up on Loose Women over his twins.
Anton said Hannah is “the most brilliant and remarkable mum and wife”.
He said: “I didn’t know whether I wanted to have children or whether that was going to be a thing for me.
“But I knew that if I did have children it would be with the woman I would want to spend the rest of my life with. And it’s Hannah.

“Having children with Hannah was a perfectly normal thing to do.”
After that, the show then played a video of Henrietta and George.
Anton became tearful and wiped his eyes with tissues.
