Bobby Brazier's grandmother was left in tears after watching the Strictly Come Dancing star perform for the first time ever.
Jackiey Budden travelled all the way to Newcastle to see her grandson take part in the Strictly Come Dancing Live! tour.
She could be seen standing and waving to Bobby as he lifted the Glitterball Trophy alongside his dance partner Dianne Buswell.
This comes after reports that she has been "banned" from attending the Strictly studio because of an apparent feud with Jeff Brazier.

Jade Goody's mum was also said to have been "very upset" at spending Christmas alone and "would do anything" to see Bobby Brazier and his brother.
A source close to the family told the Mail on Sunday that Jackiey spent Christmas at her London flat instead of being with Bobby and Freddie.
They said: "It’s tremendously sad for Jackiey, the boys are really the only family she has left since Jade died," adding: "She would give anything to be with them on the day, to give them their presents and tell them how much she loves them."
Speaking of the tumultuous relationship between Jackiey and Jeff, the source said: "Jeff and Jackiey haven't got on for a long time and it has been hard.
"It has meant that Jackiey hasn't been able to be in the audience to watch Bobby, things are just too bad between her and his father.
"He and his brother Freddie are her only grandchildren and she adores them, there is nothing she would love more than to be there to watch him live."
This comes after the Strictly Come Dancing star told the Mirror how much his "nearest and dearest" have helped him in recent years.
He said:Â "I realised the other day - which I'm really grateful to have re-remembered - is that the reason that doing stuff like this is so so fun and so cool is because it's not just me who experiences it, but it's my team too. It's my friends and family and my nearest and dearest that all experience it to the same level.
"That's the best thing in the world. I love it and I love that so much to be able to bring my best friends or my friends to cool things that I'm able to do. That's what makes it fun because otherwise - I don't really know."
Bobby Brazier lost out on the Glitterball Trophy after Coronation Street star Ellie Leach was crowned winner of Strictly Come Dancing 2023.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
