As host Alex Jones asked Emma about her co-star Lacey starring on the show, she asked: 'Have you spoken to her? How is she feeling?'
Emma replied: 'She's such a gorgeous wonderful woman and the audience are going to love her. And I'm so proud of her because it's nerve-racking, isn't it. And it's scary.'
As Rob Rinder joined Emma on the couch, she said 'Oh you know' before also pointing at Roman and adding: 'Roman you know as well.'
