Deborah James hoped to be 'lucky one' before being told how long she has left

You, Me & The Big C's Deborah James says she would 'grieve for her life' before being told how long she has left to live - and often hoped she would be the 'lucky one'.

The 40-year-old broadcaster - who has battled bowel cancer since December 2016 - made the revelation in an old podcast episode, which aired in 2018.

The mum-of-two told her 455k Instagram followers on Monday night that she is dying from the illness and doesn't know how long she has left.
