Place in the Sun's Jonnie Irwin endorses 'amazing' Jesmond restaurant with glowing Instagram review

A Place in The Sun star Jonnie Irwin has given a form seal of approval to a restaurant in Jesmond, urging his many followers to 'check it out' if they're ever in the area.

Popular TV presenter Jonnie prompted an outpouring of support 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.

It was reported that he moved his family to Newcastle to secure a comfortable future for his wife Jessica, as well as his three sons when he passes away. And, since making the switch to Tyneside, Jonnie has been getting to know his new surroundings, taking trips to the coast and heading to Kingston Park to see Newcastle Falcons in action.
