A Place in The Sun's Jonnie Irwin furious as he pulls himself out sickbed

A Place in the Sun's Jonnie Irwin was furious as he shared an update with fans.

The property expert has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. The 49-year-old chose to keep his illness private until last November, but hopes sharing his diagnosis will encourage others to "make the most of every day".

Jonnie shares three sons with his wife, Jessica Holmes, and he regularly shares updates from his life on Instagram. He has taken to the social media platform to reveal he attended the Newcastle vs Tottenham game today.
