Fans offer comfort as John Bishop shares sad family news

John Bishop has announced the sad death of his pet Milo., and was comforted by fans rushing to offer their support.

John took to social media and wrote: "Today we lost a friend. Milo was the first rescue animal @melbish1 adopted when I returned home from a tour to find him in the garden. Since then he has been the heartbeat of our animal family. I am so grateful that @melbish1 captured me sat with him last weekend, something I would often do until he would get bored of me and move away.

"He has lived with us for over a decade and wandered wherever he wanted . He had special relationship with Mel’s mum and a unique bond with Mel. I never ever thought we would have a pig as a pet and I never knew how much I would miss him knowing he won’t be there when I go into the garden . Like all pets he gave so much more than he took. Goodnight Milo - I am going to miss our chats."
