Caramel may have been the challenge in the latest Great British Baking Show episode, but Connie’s departure was the moment contestant Moyin couldn’t hold back tears.
In a new Instagram video shared Saturday, November 14, he explained that the emotion came from how much Connie had supported the bakers behind the scenes.
“Why the heck was I crying on national television?” he asked at the start of the video, before recapping Caramel Week’s bakes. Moyin noted that his sticky toffee treacle tart was his first-ever treacle tart, though he admitted he wasn’t sure whether it was the right take on the challenge.
The showstopper brought its own stress. Moyin said he and fellow contestant Tom spent six hours on the phone trying to work out how to build their nougatine structures. But his nerves took a back seat when Connie left the tent.
“Talk about Connie, like I was so, so, so sad when she stepped out,” he said. “I was like, how am I gonna do this? Why are you doing this to me now?”

Moyin said viewers don’t get to see all the ways Connie cared for the other contestants during filming. “But you know, we’re going to the semis, the four guys, and I know we’re all gonna miss her because she really, really, really looked out for us, like there’s so much you don’t see,” he said.
He summed up his affection for Connie by saying, “That is Mother.” He added, “Like there is so much to say about this lady, but I can’t really put it into words, so all I will say is she’s like one of the best people you will ever meet, I promise you that.”
Moyin was brought to tears at the end of the episode when Connie had to leave the tent. And it wasn’t just a single tear—it was a raw and emotional moment. He ended up winning Star Baker that week, but his joy was overshadowed by Connie’s departure.
And fans appreciated that kind of vulnerability.
“This episode was amazing and I think you healed the nation a little bit by being so openly emotional as a man on national TV. ?,” one fan wrote in the comments.
“team conmoy forever! you two were/are so loving and kind towards each other; i understand why you were crying: it was such a moment of a high and a low! that must have felt like a lot.,” a second said.
A third replied, “Oh honey, it was international television, and we all enjoyed to see you being so lovely with Connie.”
Moyin and the remaining bakers, Gabe, Mo, and Tom, are heading into the semifinals of Collection 14, which premiered back in September.
