Host Osher Günsberg took to Twitter to share a touching moment between him and Lisa that viewers didn’t get to see.
During the episode, Australian swimming champion Lisa Curry revealed why she decided to compete on the show:
“You know what? I needed a bit of cheering up, so I just thought, ‘Why not do it?’” she explained before adding, “because you only get these opportunities once and you never lose, you only learn.”
Lisa lost her 33-year-old daughter, Jaimi Lee Kenny in 2020 and has been open about the grief she lives with.
“When Lisa said ‘I needed a bit of cheering up’, it didn’t make the show – but I was so overcome I just hugged Lisa” explained Osher on Twitter.
“Thank goodness they cut away because I legit teared up. What an absolute goddess of a human.”
And it wasn’t only Osher who felt emotional during the episode, with many fans agreeing with the host.
“It looked like she was having a ball. She did a great job and I think we all wished we could hug her,” replied one fan.
“She really is an incredible human! Her song choice seemed perfect too,” shared another viewer.
“I was fully teared up. She is such a beautiful human and a true survivor,” penned another.
