Lisa Snowdon apparently broke down in tears after an emotional week on Strictly Come Dancing.

The former model, 36, who is partnered with fiery Brendan Cole, 32, felt the pressure during a group rehearsal after juggling both the reality show and presenting her breakfast radio show with Johnny Vaughn.

‘Lisa is getting up at about 4am every day to do her Capital Radio show,’ a source tells The Sun. ‘Then she’s spending hours training with Brendan, who’s a harsh taskmaster.

‘It all got too much for her – she started crying while the cameras were filming the group dance rehearsals this week. She had to leave the studio.’

Lisa is also said to be having trouble coping with the new routine for dance American Smooth.

‘Lisa is just frustrated that she won’t be able to get the dance in time,’ the insider adds. ‘She’s finding it hard to pick up the steps’
