Deborah James: Bowel cancer symptoms as campaigner dies aged 40

On Tuesday (June 28) it was announced that podcaster, blogger, broadcaster and former teacher, Dame Deborah James, sadly died aged 40.

The cancer campaigner passed away from bowel cancer which she was diagnosed with in 2016 and soon began building up a following on her Instagram page @bowelbabe, with many praising her for being candid about living with cancer.

In early May of this year however, Deborah revealed that she had stopped active treatment and was instead receiving end-of-life care at her parents' home in Woking. Her husband Sebastien and their two children were by her side.
