Fans have teased that Thierry Henry appeared 'heartbroken' after presenter Kate Abdo jokingly announced her 'engagement' during CBS Champions League coverage.
Abdo was hosting CBS Sports' latest coverage of the competition on Tuesday night, alongside their regular line-up of Henry, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards as pundits.
The show has earned widespread praise for the exchanges with Abdo and the punditry team, as well as their analysis.
Abdo said during the show 'Guess what, everybody, we have a big announcement coming up in our post-game [analysis] so make sure you stay with us for that.'
She added to the punditry team 'You lot don't know what it is, do you?'
'No, what is it,' said Richards, with Abdo telling the former Man City defender 'It's a big announcement, that's all I can tell you and it's coming up.'
Carragher quickly quipped 'Are you getting engaged?', prompting Abdo to reply 'Yes, I'm getting engaged. He doesn't know yet, but yes.'
While Carragher and Richards responded excitedly about the prospect, viewers were quick to highlight Henry's shocked reaction to the remark, claiming the former Arsenal and Barcelona star appeared 'heartbroken'.
'Thierry Henry is heartbroken,' one fan posted, with another commenting 'You can see his heart shattering into pieces'.
'His world shattered,' added a third.
'His work wife got engaged, unreal pain,' said a fourth.
'The cameraman zooming in on Henry’s face,' commented another.
Despite the jokes from fans, Henry has been in a long-term relationship with Bosnian-born personality Andrea Rajacic since 2011.
Abdo married Ratmin Abdo in 2010 but reports claim the couple divorced, with the presented reportedly now in a relationship with radio host Barak Bess.
The announcement teased by Abdo was revealed later in the show, with the CBS crew confirming they will travel to Miami for games on November 28 and 29.
