Escape to the Country's Nicki Chapman gobsmacked as brain tumour mysteriously disappears

Escape to the Country star Nicki Chapman has revealed her brain tumour has mysteriously disappeared - and said she broke down on receiving the news while filming in a field full of pigs.

The former Pop Idol judge was diagnosed with a non-malignant brain tumour - which had grown to the size of a small golf ball - but could only have part of it removed in 2019 because it was too dangerous to take it all out.

She was warned that the life-saving surgery posed the risk of permanent loss of speech, sight or movement. Although she revealed she currently only has reading and concentration difficulties, she has gone on to have regular checks since.
