Britain's Got Talent's Dec 'in tears' as Ant films hilarious TikTok video

Ant and Dec left fans a bit concerned after a video appeared on social media of the latter crying.

The clip, shot by Ant McPartlin, who walks into a room to find his best friend Declan Donnelly sitting at a computer. However, Ant begins to feel all is not right.

Ant asks his Britain's Got Talent co-host what the matter is? Dec responds "What?" in a rather baffled manner, BirminghamLive reports.

The pair continue to talk with Ant saying his friend seems really upset. "What are you crying for?" he asks Dec.

Dec replies emphatically that he isn't crying, but Ant continues to probe his mate. He quips: "Who has upset you? I'll beat them up if they've upset you!"

However, fans of the Geordie duo should not be concerned, as it was all a bit of a joke being played. Ant posted the clip on TikTok with a hashtag saying "crying filter", with the I'm A Celebrity co-host saying: "Having a bawl with this one."

Last weekend, Ant and Dec reflected on their "inspirational" drag performance after winning the Bafta TV award for entertainment programme. The presenting duo transformed into Lady Antoinette and Miss Donna Lee as part of a drag queen performance on their ITV show Saturday Night Takeaway in February.

Speaking after receiving their Bafta TV award, Donnelly, 46, said the pair were "moved by how inspirational people found it". "When we had the idea of doing the drag act, we wanted to do it properly, and we wanted to do it right, and we want to be respectful of the artform," he said.

"We didn't want it to look silly, and that we slap on a bit of lipstick and eyeshadow and then walk out in wonky heels. We were like, if we're going to do this, we're going to do it properly because it is a real art form and it's a respected art form."
