Former Hollyoaks actress Abi Phillips, 28, told she had a 'cold' diagnosed with cancer

A former Hollyoaks star has revealed to fans that she has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer at just 28-years-old.

Abi Phillips, who played Liberty Savage on the Channel 4 soap, shared the news to her Instagram page, not long after receiving the shocking diagnosis.

The star could be seen wearing a face mask and hospital gown in a string of selfies, alongside a caption which read: "So, I took these pictures before my scans and after my biopsy having a good old laugh about how ridiculously dressed up I looked in the hospital before a gig, not expecting for one moment to get the news that I did two weeks later."
