A Place In The Sun star Jonnie Irwin gives cancer update after night in pain

Jonnie Irwin has been flooded by messages of support after updating fans on his cancer battle.

Last month, the A Place In The Sun star revealed he had terminal lung cancer but said he was determined to continue a relatively normal life rather than being beaten by the disease. The 49-year-old, a dad-of-three, has now posted a message on Instagram and told his followers he went on a bike ride in the Lake District.

He wrote: "After a torrid night in pain I dosed up on PK’s (painkillers) and was able to enjoy the beautiful Lakes via E-mtb. I’ll probably pay for it later but grateful for the window, the company and the weather. Only my second time hired one machines but I’m hooked! #thelakes [sic]."
