Jonnie Irwin has accused the production company behind A Place In The Sun of not fighting for him to stay after his terminal cancer diagnosis. The presenter, 49, revealed last week that he has lung cancer, which has now spread to his brain.
He told Hello magazine last week that the first warning sign of his illness came while he was filming the Channel 4 show, in August 2020 in Italy, when his vision became blurry while driving. On Good Morning Britain (GMB) on Thursday, he was asked whether he feels “aggrieved” after being let go from the property show which he started in over 18 years ago.
Irwin said: “(A Place In The Sun) didn’t think they could get insurance, it just broke my heart and I just didn’t think they even fought for me.”
