After making his diagnosis public last year, Jonnie credited “Jess and our boys” with helping him stay positive and focus on creating as many memories as he can with his beloved family.

The property expert and Jess wed in September 2016 and have since welcomed Rex, three, and two-year-old twins Rafa and Cormac into the world.

Jonnie joked to his Instagram followers as he shared a snap of his sons cuddled up with the dog: “Looks like we’ve found ourselves a new babysitter…”

One of his fans commented: “This is just the cutest,” with another adding: “Thinking of you all & what a beautiful new babysitter you have.”
