Fans have already been branding i "the saddest video ever" and admitting he had already watched it and had cried a lot, Richard was once against fighting tears after seeing it once more live on the early morning news programme.
Susanna asked entertainment and showbiz guru Richard: "Did you cry?" to which Richard replied: "Oh Susanna, oh mate. I mean any pet lover..." before cutting to the clip of Lewis' video.
As the cameras then returned to the London-based studio, a choked-up Richard said: "Heartbreaking, it's heartbreaking isn't it?" Co-host Martin asked, "Are you about to blub?", as Susanna joined in to add "He's gone! He's blubbing!"
He then replied: "I just think it's beautiful, it's beautiful." The camera panned to the GMB crew all pretending to wipe away their tears with tissues behind the scenes as Susanna quipped: "Oh they're off."
And it wasn't just Richard as GMB viewers were also soon left in bits. @ESNYSOFIA tweeted: "@LewisCapaldi 'wish you the best' music video just partly played on @GMB and quite honestly think the whole national probably ended up crying."
@sjetaylor said: "@GMB Oh my days watched the Lewis Capaldi video - am in absolute bits." @staceee95_ added: "No me crying at half 8 in the morning because of @LewisCapaldi new music video."
