There wasn’t a dry eye in the house – those of Amanda Holden included – during a moving Heart Radio segment on Wednesday, as nine-year-old cancer sufferer Harry heard recorded messages from his school friends and teachers.
Amanda and co-host Jason King couldn’t hold back their tears.
Nor could many listeners, judging by the outpouring of comments the clip has received on the various social media platforms to which Heart Radio posted it.
Earlier this year, Davina McCall took over the mic from Amanda while she was in Mallorca for a Netflix gig.

Amanda Holden moved to tears by messages for cancer sufferer Harry
Harry is nine years old and has been battling cancer for a year.
For some of that time, he underwent chemotherapy. The cancer had spread down his spinal cord.
Yesterday, Amanda Holden and JK told their Heart Radio listeners about his cancer journey. They explained that doctors had found a tumour at the back of his brain.
Today, Harry appeared on the show with his mum in tow. Together, they heard messages of support and encouragement from Harry’s classmates and teachers at school.
“Why does it have to happen to him?” one of the children in the recording asks. Another says: “Oh, Harry, I can’t wait to play with you soon.”
