“’Do you need a tear stick to help you cry for the scene?’ And she was like absolutely not because sadly she had to have her own dog, Diva put down.”
She added: “I can’t see through the tears here. She said it brought it all back of having to make that awful decision.
“My little Maggie is about 13, she’s a bit grey.”

“I didn’t get it prior to I had Maggie,” Ruth confessed, prior to confessing she doesn’t understand how she’d cope without her pooch.
