On the show, Charlotte and Richard welcomed Tristan, a widower whose wife, Dr Susan Michaelis, died of breast cancer.
Dr Susan had been a strong advocate for research into lobular breast cancer for 14 years while battling the same disease. Her widowed husband used his appearance to raise awareness and described his wife as an “amazing” person whom he misses dearly.
At the end of their conversation, Tristan shared: “Thank you to all the women who have this disease, for giving it some airtime.”
Richard Madeley responded: “Oh, it’s you that deserves the thanks.”
Charlotte was totally moved and expressed her gratitude towards Tristan. “Thank you for coming in when this has only just happened, and you know, I know that obviously, you were supremely proud of her and everything she was doing,” she said.
As she tried to continue, Charlotte fought back her tears.
“I know she would be so proud of you continuing this fight,” she said before choking up. “Sorry, it’s one of things that have effected a lot of people this morning,” Charlotte added.
