BBC Morning Live’s Gethin Jones got all teary-eyed in a heartfelt video he posted on the show’s Twitter feed, where he opened up about the emotional release of crying.
The 46-year-old TV presenter was seen wandering around town, hand over his mouth, as he admitted to his followers: “It’s a lot. Just having a few tears, just to make myself feel better because I’ve been out and about asking people about crying, cry-maxing. Are you a ‘cry-maxer’? Does crying make you feel good?”
He then shared with his fans that recent research suggests having a good sob can actually be beneficial, helping to relieve stress and pent-up emotions. He queried emotionally: “Does that work for you? Or are you someone who bottles it up inside? Please let us know. I’ve got to go.”

One user responded: “I love a cry. I always feel much better afterwards. It’s such a release and I have much clearer thoughts after a cry followed by some deep breaths!!!” Another shared a humorous anecdote: “Realised I cry too much when someone on the TV was crying and the dog rushed over because she thought it was me!”
And a third couldn’t help but tease Gethin, commenting: “This made me cry with laughter sorry Geth.” Gethin himself couldn’t resist re-posting the video on his own profile, seemingly making light of his own tearful moment.

He captioned the snapshot video: “Marks out of 10 for my acting?” Gethin’s emotional reveal surfaces just days after he made public getting a spontaneous tattoo in tribute to his BBC co-worker and Dragons’ Den star, Sara Davies.
The business tycoon hosted an extravagant 40th birthday party, named FortyFest, which treated guests to festival-like celebrations filled with a bar, picture booth, dessert bars, and a merry zone. Nevertheless, it appears Gethin had some lingering regrets post-fete as he posted an image of his forearm stamped with the words “S.D 40.”

Posting the photo on his Instagram story, he commented: “Seemed like a good idea at the time.” Sara reposted the snapshot as she exclaimed: “When someone loves you enough to tattoo you on their arm…”
