Bill Turnbull has sadly passed away at the age of 66 after being diagnosed with prostate cancer five years ago, but before his death he was outspoken about his experience with the illness. The BBC Breakfast host 'died peacefully at his home in Suffolk surrounded by his family on Wednesday, 31st August', his family recently confirmed.
He was diagnosed with cancer in 2017 and was cared for at the Royal Marsden and Ipswich Hospitals, St Elizabeth Hospice and his GP. Before his tragic death, the host opened up about his 'bumpy' journey and how he wasn't going to 'let it win'. In a former interview, in 2019, he said that he had taken to yelling at his cancer - and would go to the end of his garden to vent.
