Amber Davies burst into tears as she admitted she's already in "mourning" ahead of the Strictly Come Dancing final.
The former Love Island star, 29, was drafted into the line-up after fellow reality TV star Dani Dyer suffered an injury in rehearsals and Amber is now set to compete for the glitterball trophy after reaching the final three along with social media star George Clarke and former England footballer Karen Carney - and Amber has confessed she can't stop crying now the experience is coming to an end.
During an appearance on Strictly spin-off show It Takes Two on Tuesday (16.12.25), Amber broke down and wipes tears from her eyes as as she said: "It makes me wanna cry, honestly. I can't believe I'm here, just the way that we started.
"I had this random phone call on a Wednesday night, to being in the final and having the best 12 weeks of my life ... I'm just over the moon. I don't want it to be over. Have we got any tissues?"
She was then handed a box of tissues by her dance partner Nikita Kuzmin and she dabbed her eyes before continuing: "We are tired, but do you know what? This is the last few days and I'm just so grateful ...
"My alarm went off, sorry, I'm such a crier at the minute because I just love it so much. My alarm went off this morning and I jumped out of bed, because I just thought that this was the last Tuesday.
"So, I just wanna cherish every single moment that I have left with you [Nikita]. Sorry. Why am I acting like we're never gonna see each other again? I'm really bad at saying goodbye. "
Amber concluded by saying: "The Strictly bubble is bursting, it came into my life with a vengeance and now it feels like it's leaving just as quickly.
"I have loved every single second of it and I'm gonna miss it so much. I'm mourning it now!"
After reaching the grand final, Amber took to social media to share her pride. In a video posted online, she said: "I just want to come on here and say in the close to a decade I've been in the public eye, I have never experienced an outpouring of love the way I have in the last 48 hours.
"To make the Strictly final is ... I'm speechless. From how it started, I genuinely can't believe I've made it to the end."
Amber added: "I think I've needed to do Strictly to realise there's so much kindness in the world. "We're strong when we're kinder. I'm going to enjoy every single second of this week. I'm rooting for George, I'm rooting for Kaz and I'm just there to enjoy the ride."
The Strictly Come Dancing final will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer at 7pm on Saturday December 20.
