Jonnie Irwin's wife Jessica had made a heartbreaking admission over the couple's sons knowing that the terminally ill Place in the Sun presenter 'needs to rest,' after he revealed that he has already bought their 18th birthday presents.
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 Jonnie, 49, now facing up to the heart-breaking realisation that he could have just months to live.
Jonnie, Jess and the couple's three children, Rex, three, and two-year-old twins Rafa and Cormac live on Tyneside, having moved to be closer to her family. They have fallen in love with the area, taking trips to the coat, having meals at local restaurants and Jonnie even having a trip to Newcastle's St James' Park, albeit to see is beloved Spurs trounced 6-1 by the Magpies. Sharing a photo of the SJP pitch from his seat in the Spurs end, he wrote: "Pulled myself out my sickbed for this. It’s embarrassing!"
