TV iconic Esther Rantzen reveals stage 4 lung cancer but admits she's 'grateful'

Dame Esther Rantzen has revealed she's "not good at regrets" -something she's mused on since being diagnosed with lung cancer in January.

Instead, the TV icon admitted she only feels grateful when she looks back on her long life and six-decade career.

The 82-year-old, who previously released a statement about her cancer diagnosis “because I find it difficult to skulk around various hospitals wearing an unconvincing disguise”, now reveals she is facing Stage 4 cancer.
