OLLY Murs’ fans have been reduced to tears over the ‘saddest ever’ episode of Who Do You Think You Are?
The Trouble Maker singer, 40, is one of the celebs appearing on the brand new series of the BBC ancestry show.
During the episode viewers watched as Olly attempted to trace his great grandparents.
He learned that they hailed from Latvia and were circus performers.
However, Olly’s discovery took a dark turn when he travelled to the Salamonska Circus building in Riga to trace his great grandmother Veronika Jankovska.
During his visit he was told how his great grandfather had cheated on his current partner with Veronika.
After they had a child, Veronika – who was 22 at the time – struggled to raise her son Eduards Jr and handed him over to her parents so she could work at the circus.
But when Nazi Germany took over the country, Eduards Jr was forced to flee as as refugee to Germany with his father and his partner.
In tragic scenes Olly discovered that Veronika was imprisoned in a labour camp for eight years.
Despite searching for her son after her release, she was heartbreakingly never reunited with him.
Veronika died in 1988 with no family by her side and was buried in an unmarked grave.
Upsetting scenes showed dad-of-one Murs visit her plot, paying respects to Veronika.
Reflecting on the upsetting story, Olly said: “WWII had a real impact on my family. I think Veronica made a very bold decision that day, leaving her son and knowing that she might never see him again.”
He added: “I wish my grandad could have understood his mum’s decisions.”
Who Do You Think You Are viewers at home were left distraught by the scenes, with some left in tears.
Taking to social media, one said: “Just cried at #WhoDoYouThinkYouAre. That episode was brilliant but so so sad. That poor mother and son @ollymurs.”
A second wrote: “Such an emotional episode of Who Do You Think You Are this evening with Olly Murs. The story of his great grandmother’s hardships and search for her son were so sad. So glad Olly and his family have her story now.”
“Olly im CRYING. I know your grandad will be with his mam up in heaven right now. They may have not found each other here, but I know they’re together up there now, looking down on you all, especially you and Amelia and little Madi, and they’re so proud,” said a third.
While a fourth commented: “One glass of red wine (large) and I’m crying about olly murs on who do you think you are.”

A WOMAN has admitted killing baby girl after she smashed into her while she was in a pram.
Mabli Cariad Hall was struck by the car at Withybush Hospital in Pembrokeshire, Wales, in June last year.
The eight-month-old was airlifted to Bristol Children’s Hospital but tragically couldn’t be saved and died four days later.
Bridget Curtis, 70, appeared at Swansea Crown Court today.
She pleaded guilty to a charge of causing death by dangerous driving.
The horror unfolded at around 11.50am on June 21 after a BMW crashed into Mabli and another pedestrian.
The baby, who was in her pram at the time of the horror, tragically passed away on June 25.
A cause of death was previously given as severe traumatic brain injuries.
Curtis was treated in hospital for serious but non-life threatening injuries along with a passenger in the car.
A second pedestrian struck by the BMW was also taken to hospital but later discharged.
Following her death, Mabli’s parents, Rob and Gwen Hall released a heartbreaking tribute.
They said: “We are absolutely heartbroken by the death of our beautiful baby girl, Mabli.
“She was adored by us and her five siblings, and brought us so much joy in her short life.
“We will always remember Mabli’s beautiful little smile and cherish the time we had with her.
“We would like to thank everyone who tried to help us at such a tragic time; the people who were there when it happened, the emergency services who came to our aid and the amazing staff at Withybush, the Heath in Cardiff and Bristol Children’s Hospital.
“Their strength and support allowed us to focus on Mabli.”

The model, 25, dazzled in a pair of sequin hot pants at the The Pink Gala Tequila Rose party in Manchester.
Grace posed for a string of stunning snaps on the red carpet and left little to the imagination as she flashed her bum at the camera.

Grace flashed a big smile as she arrived at the venue with her pals for the big bash.
She has every to be happy after recently bagging a huge six-figure fashion deal – despite not making it to the final.
Last month, The Sun revealed how Grace had signed a whopping contract with fashion and shoe brand EGO after being inundated with offers following her stint in the villa.
A rep for Grace told The Sun: “We are so excited to announce after multiple offers Grace has signed a deal with EGO worth six figures.
“Grace has always loved EGO and the creative ideas really align with her style and personality.
“No other islander has done anything like this for a first brand deal and we know it’s going to be a huge moment for Grace.”
A spokesperson for EGO added: “We’re thrilled to have Grace on board, we knew from the beginning she was the girl for us.
“She’s bold, not afraid to push boundaries and her sense of style is exceptionally EGO.
“The alignment makes complete sense.
“It’s a very exciting time for the brand, we’ve seen unprecedented growth over the past year.
“Grace has tons to give, as do we. We’re ready to get started!”
Grace, who is represented by M Models Management, was previously tipped to be the next Molly-Mae after landing a series of meetings, including one with Pretty Little Thing.
We previously exclusively told how Grace was set to become the first millionaire of the series as the “new Molly-Mae” was inundated with offers.

Previously, a source told us: “Grace has turned down work in the past if it hasn’t felt right though so she’s really picking carefully, making sure she gets the deals that really fit in and align with her.
“She’s on course to be a millionaire already and a lot of brands are calling her the next Molly-Mae.”
The exciting news comes just days after Grace called it quits with Reuben Collins.
The couple struggled to make it work thanks to their different locations and busy schedules.
A source said: “Grace and Reuben have come to the mutual decision a romantic relationship isn’t right for either of them at this time.
“Grace wishes Reuben all the best and vice versa. They will remain friends and have no bad feelings towards each other.”

One city has been found to offer the best bargain holiday deal for this time of year, and that’s Marrakech.
The fourth largest city in Morrocco has become increasingly popular with tourists over the years.
And it’s now been crowned Most Budget Friendly Autumn Getaway 2024 by DiscoverCars.com.

Its average temperature was one of the highest at 19C.
Here are some of the cheapest things you can get up to in the city.
Nestled in the heart of Marrakech is Bahia Palace – a 19th century building decorated with stunning paintings and mosaics.
The palace was set up by Si Moussa, grand vizir of the sultan, for his personal use, and named after one of his wives.
Its gardens are particularly popular, with orange and banana trees, cypress trees, hibiscus plants and jasmine shading the walkways.
Entry to the palace is free.
Jemaa el-Fnaa is the main square and market place in Marrakech’s medina quarter.
There are plenty of restaurants dotted around the square serving local delicacies like tagine, brochettes (skewered kebabs), fried fish and couscous.
Prices are very cheap – you can have a hearty meal for just £9-13.
