TV presenter Fiona Phillips revealed she has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. The 62-year-old who was raised in Pembrokeshire revealed that she was given the diagnosis at the age of 61.
Speaking to the Mirror, Fiona and her husband Martin Frizell discussed how concerns were first raised when Fiona was experiencing extreme anxiety as well as brain fog. After thinking it might be a result of symptoms from the menopause, Fiona sought further help and it was confirmed she was in the early stages of the disease.
She is now participating in clinical trials for a revolutionary new drug which scientists hope could slow or even reverse the illness for millions of sufferers in years to come.
