She said tearfully: "I'm so sorry, this is so overwhelming, I'm such a baby. Thank you so much.

"I want to start by thanking the BBC for being the most incredible team to work with, my dear friend Adam for being the most incredible director."

As she wiped her tears away, Jesy continued: "I want to thank every single person in the documentary for being so brave and courageous for sharing their story with the world."

She then went on to thank her mum, who appeared in the documentary, and boyfriend Chris Hughes for "making me feel confident every day".

Jesy wasn't the only winner on the night, with This Morning taking home the gong for Live Magazine Show category once again.

Presenter Phillip Schofield looked awkward as he wrapped his arm around Ruth Langsford following their win in a "staged" acceptance speech.

Meanwhile, NTAs host David Walliams, who took over from Dermot O'Leary on the night, was booed by the audience after making a joke about Caroline Flack.

His actions caused a number of fans called for him to be sacked - and Piers Morgan branded him "nasty" and a "massive d***head".

The Sun Online has contacted Chris' rep for comment.
