Former Hollyoaks actress Abi Phillips has revealed she has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer at the age of 28.
The star - who played Liberty Savage in the Channel 4 - shared the devastating news with fans on Instagram shortly after she received the shocking diagnosis.
Wearing a face mask and hospital gown in a series of selfies, Abi told her followers: "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."
