Linda Nolan, 62, is currently battling cancer after finding a lump in her breast in 2005.
She was told it was stage three cancer then was given the all-clear in 2006 but found out over 10 years later that the cancer was back and had spread to her hip.
In May 2020, the cancer spread to her liver.

Anne Nolan has also suffered with the disease after being first diagnosed in 2000 and is now cancer-free.
Coleen considers herself to be "incredibly high risk" of it and considered a double mastectomy last year to lower that risk.
The Nolans tragically lost their sister Bernie to cancer in 2013.
