Dame Deborah James died yesterday - but her legacy will live on forever.
Today, Good Morning Britain hosts Adil Ray and Susanna Reid paid tribute to the campaigner after she lost her life to bowel cancer at just 40 years old. The mum-of-two was diagnosed with the devastating disease in 2016 and subsequently kept her nearly one million Instagram followers up to date with her treatments.
In her final weeks, the presenter of the BBC podcast You, Me And The Big C raised millions of pounds for research and was made a dame for her “tireless” work improving awareness of the disease. The ITV show highlighted all of former deputy headteacher's achievements before her death as they paid a touching tribute to her, while pinpointing the signs to look out for with bowel cancer.
