“In honor of the Emmys, here’s a video of the last time Sammy, the band and I rehearsed together. We were rehearsing to perform live for our lovely Daisy fans and it sadly never happened because of the strike,” began the caption on the post.

She continued: “I have so much love for everyone in this band and on this show. Everyone on this show worked harder than I’ve ever witnessed on any project actually for years. You’re all winners to me. I feel so blessed to have spent time with all of you and when I lose tonight, I lose for you.”

Claflin left a comment on the post that read: “So much love for this, for you, for everyone involved,” while Reece Witherspoon – who produced the series though her media company Hello Sunshine – wrote: “Aghhhh! Still hoping for this live performance.. one day!!”
