It’s always good to have a little cry from time to time …

And Breakfast host Matty McLean has revealed the one movie that always gets his tear ducts watering.

While chatting about how shedding a few tears can actually be a good way to relieve stress, Matty admitted that he had recently balled his eyes over the iconic scene in The Lion King, where Simba’s father Mufasa tragically dies.

"It’s one of the saddest moments in cinematography," Matty tells his co-hosts.

"You don't cry when Mufasa dies? Are you dead inside?" 

We couldn’t agree with you more Matty!

Things got even more emotional when Dan Faitaua retold the scene, which caused Simba to grow up parentless and feeling guilty for his father’s death.

Matty started to well up again …

Don’t worry Matty, we’ll pass you the tissue box once we’re done with them!
