Hope Hicks, a key witness in former President Donald Trump‘s criminal hush money trial, broke down in tears on the witness stand Friday, just moments into cross-examination from her former boss’s lawyer.

Hicks was only asked a few questions by Trump attorney Emil Bove before she began to break down into tears. The court immediately took a break in response to the incident. Some observers in the room speculated whether she felt as if she was betraying the former president.

Trump, who was largely avoiding looking at Hicks during her testimony, locked eyes on her when she began to cry, according to the New York Times.

Hicks served as White House communications director and was a key adviser during his 2016 presidential campaign and in the White House.

Earlier in the day, she admitted she was “really nervous” as she adjusted the microphone from the witness stand. She also spoke highly of Trump before prosecutors delved into any deeper questions, calling him a “very good multitasker, a very hard worker.”
