The Loose Women panellist lost her pooch Jackson a 'couple of weeks ago'
ANDREA McLean sobbed live on air as she opened up about the death of her dog, Jackson.
The presenter gushed about her late golden retriever on the programme, as she hailed her pet pooch 'a huge part' of her life.
Friday's episode saw the panel discuss the topic Puppy Love and Kaye Adams addressed Andrea's loss.
She said: "That's a hard one for you isn't it?"
The comment pulled on Andrea's heartstrings as she started to well up.
Once the star - who recently married third husband Nick Feeney - composed herself, she then said: "I can't believe it, my dog Jackson died.
"Gosh I didn't think I'd get upset.
"It happened a couple of weeks ago. He was a huge part of our life.
"A dog is a member of your family."
But Kaye, and fellow panellists Nadia Sawalha and Stacey Solomon, quickly consoled Andrea.
Kaye praised Jackson for being there to support her pal through her tough times, as she recently underwent a hysterectomy.
She said: "What an important part of your life he was, he took you through relationships.
"We are all dog owners, and it is a member of your family. This creature that loves you unconditionally."
Nadia went on to share her fond memories and love for Andrea's four-legged friend. She said: "I love Jacks".
Andrea has remained quiet about her loss until today, although in September this yeart she shared a sweet picture of her cuddling her dog.
The Instagram post read: "Is there ANYTHING nicer than coming home to this handsome man? If there is, I can’t think of it. (Sorry husband and kids)."
