Deborah James called off divorce just weeks before devastating cancer diagnosis

Inspirational campaigner Deborah James, 40, reconciled with her then-estranged husband Sebastien Bowen shortly before receiving her devastating bowel cancer diagnosis in 2016.

The BBC presenter has previously recalled how she and her beloved husband once spent two years separated - going on "hideous Tinder dates" with other people - and were in the process of divorcing at one point, before reuniting in November 2016.

The following month, at the age of just 35, Deborah was diagnosed with stage three bowel cancer in December 2016, which went on to become stage four.
