Kym Marsh gives update on dad's cancer on BBC Morning Live as her mum gets emotional

Kym Marsh has given an update on her dad's health, confirming that his cancer has spread. The former Coronation Street actress revealed last summer that her father Dave had been diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer.

She said that Dave had delayed going to the doctors due the coronavirus pandemic before sharing the devastating news that the disease had spread to her dad's pelvis, spine, ribs and left leg.

In a fresh update, Kym appeared as host on BBC's Morning Live alongside Dave and her mum, Pauline, to speak with the former singer's co-host Gethin Jones. When asked how he was feeling on Friday morning (June 17), Dave admitted that as he's on his medication he's "not too bad."
