Jonnie Irwin has given a fresh update on his cancer battle, as he headed for treatment on Tyneside on Thursday.
Popular TV presenter Jonnie, star of A Place in the Sun, was met with a wealth of support and well wishes when he made his terminal cancer diagnosis public last year. He was given the devastating lung cancer prognosis back in August 2020, despite suffering no common signs or symptoms. The disease has since spread to his brain, with him now facing up to the heart-breaking realisation that he could have just months to live.
The 49-year-old now lives in Newcastle with his family and consistently praised the area and all it has to offer on his Instagram; from the friendly and helpful people, to the match day atmosphere at Kingston Park for Newcastle Falcons games, the stunning views at the coast and even the food at Jesmond's Dosa Kitchen, which he has recently become a big fan of.
