Friends star David Schwimmer has revealed the heartbreaking reason he decided to take part in Celebrity Bake Off.
David, who played Ross Geller for 10 years in the US sitcom, said his grandmother and ex-wife’s mother died from cancer, and his sister Ellie also battled the disease. The dad-of-one, 52, added: "I lost a grandmother to cancer, my daughter lost a grandmother to cancer and my sister is a cancer survivor, so it’s important to me.
“I am just grateful I can help in any small way raise more awareness. I am here to have fun. I am here to raise money for a great charity. It’s a great cause and I happen to be a massive fan of the show.”
