Former morning TV host and journalist Fiona Phillips has announced that she's been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. The 62-year-old, who was brought up in Pembrokeshire, was first diagnosed with the disease one year ago after suffering with brain fog and anxiety.
The mother-of-two and former GMTV host lost her mother, Amy, to the disease in 2006 and her dad, Phil, also passed away from the disease in 2012. She told The Mirror: "This disease has ravaged my family and now it has come for me. And all over the country there are people of all different ages whose lives are being affected by it - it’s heartbreaking. I just hope I can help find a cure which might make things better for others in the future."
