It's been a tough week for the couple after her dog Norman was rushed to the vets with a injured leg.

The former Emmerdale star was close to tears as she revealed their pet Sproodle had badly injured his leg whilst playing in a field on Monday.

Gemma felt even worse because she was unable to "comfort him" because she is pregnant and unable to lift him.

In an emotional video posted to her Instagram account after Norman had an X-Ray at the vets, she said: "I had the worst news today. Norman's other cruciate ligament has gone so he needs to have another operation.

"I was out on the field with him and he was playing with a husky. He let out a massive yelp and lifted his leg up. I felt horrendous because I was on my own with and because I'm pregnant I couldn't pick him up.

"He was leaning on my feet for me to comfort him and I couldn't. So I felt s***.

"I just had him in the vets for an X-Ray so he's a bit groggy from his anaesthetic and they've confirmed it's another cruciate ligament on the other leg, which I knew would happen at some point, so it's another operation, and I can't lift him upstairs with me in bed or anything and Gorks is gonna be on tour.

"Oh Norman, I love you so much buddy."
