Podcaster Dame Deborah James has reflected on the most 'mind blowing' five days of life after being awarded a damehood. The inspirational 40-year-old, known online as Bowel Babe, was honoured for her 'tireless campaigning' to raise awareness of bowel cancer.
Prince William popped in for afternoon tea at her family home as he awarded the cancer campaigner with her damehood. Dame Deborah has raised millions for Cancer Research UK through her Bowelbabe fund on Just Giving.
Having set her original target at £250,000, she has now issued an update on the fund after her special day meeting Prince William on Friday (May 14). She told fans that the fund now stands at £5.7million.
