TV presenter and journalist Gabby Logan was left in tears after she recalled her husband's 'horrible' battle with cancer.
Gabby's long-time partner Kenny was diagnosed with prostate cancer back in February.
Recalling the moment the couple found out the worrying news, the mum-of-two told Steven Bartlett's The Diary of a CEO podcast: "He [Kenny] was really upset as you can imagine and I just thought, 'Right no, this is going to be absolutely fine, what are we going to do? What are the answers here?'
"His neurologist was brilliant, he's a brilliant communicator and told us what the options were and I was like, (to Kenny) 'We've just to get a plan together, you need to know what you're doing and then we will keep being positive about it.'
"That's what we did really, once we got over the initial shock, we just really kind of focused on it as a project we had to deal with and it's a bloody awful operation."
Despite the diagnosis, Gabby said she knew deep-down she "wasn't going to lose" her husband, with whom she shares two children.
Revealing Kenny had to have six stab wounds in his torso, which were "really invasive", Gaby said: "It's horrible to see him in the pain he was afterwards, it's a horrible thing to go through but he's doing really really well now."
As she let the tears flow, before composing herself, the BBC Sports presenter concluded: "He's just great, I'm very lucky.
"He's a great man and I couldn't ever wish for anybody to have shared my life with, who is better."
The couple have twins, Reuben and Lois, 16, who were conceived after IVF treatment.
