    Saturday Night Takeaway fans were left "crying their eyes out" as they watched a sweet adoption proposal live on-air.

    Presenters Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly sat and spoke to an audience member who took the opportunity live on the show to ask her stepdad if he could officially adopt her.

    The father burst into tears as his stepdaughter proposed the adoption idea to him with the help of drones that had been lit up in the sky outside the studio.

    After he accepted, the pair held each other in a sweet embrace.

    Over on Twitter, viewers expressed how emotional the segment made them, with one tweeting: "That was absolutely amazing what they did on @itvtakeaway as a foster child that made me tear up what an amazing moment for that family."

    A second put: "Wow I’m a grown ass man sat here crying my eyes out what a question to ask a special person! #SNT 'Will you adopt me?' Such a special moment and so wholesome. Top Man."

    A third wrote: "Just cried my eyes out at #SaturdayNightTakeaway at the adoption proposal. Makes me miss my dad so much but at the same time I’ve never been short of father figures so despite this huge loss I’m still so lucky."

    An audience member who was lucky enough to be involved in the sweet moment tweeted about the moment, explaining that they held up some of the boards for the segment but weren't told what it was for until the stepdad said his bit.

    "Awww that’s so sweet!" they started "We were in the #SaturdayNightTakeaway audience last week, and were told holding up those boards was for something special."

    Another put: "I like when SNT do things like this. The baby set up on week 1 wasn't good but tonight's feature with Rihanna asking Nick to be her adopted dad was lovely. Ant and Dec do things like this so well."
