Strictly Come Dancing viewers were left in tears after Jayde Adams dedicated her performance to her late sister Jenna on tonight's show. The comedian, 37, and her professional dance partner Karen Hauer, 40, performed a stunning routine to Beth Midler's classic ballad, Wind Beneath My Wing.
Before taking to the dance floor for the fourth time, Jayde explained that she was dedicating the dance to her late sister Jenna, who passed away in 2011. Jenna was just 23 years old when she was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour after suffering a seizure, and six years later she tragically passed away.
After her performance, Jayde broke down in tears while chatting to Claudia Winkleman, who mentioned her sister's name live on-air. The comedian became emotional as she recalled: "Before she died, she asked me 'do you think people will forget me'.This means so much to me because I'm proving to her that nobody has forgotten her, and we never will." Fighting back tears, Jayde added: "I'm so grateful and lucky that I get to do this because so many people lose people and grief is so difficult and personal to everyone, so being able to keep the promise that we said we would is just so special."
