Sky Sports news presenter Jacquie Beltrao shared an emotional chemotherapy update on Twitter after revealing she will begin another breast cancer battle.
The 55-year-old shared an unearthed photo of herself about to undergo treatment from the first time she had taken on the disease and won.
Brave Jacquie appeared in the picture with slick wet hair, a black band placed around her neck and plasters placed across her chest as she clutched onto a bottle of conditioner.
Now battling stage three cancer, a much more aggressive form than she’d had previously, she nervously took to social media to reminisce and ask for well wishes.

She penned: “This will be me again in the morning just before I put the cold cap on my head and before they hook me up to the chemo – wish me luck.”
Naturally, fans were only too keen to offer prayers, support and spurring messages to insist that Jacquie continues to fight.
“Kick it out Jackie. You did it before, sure you’ll do it again”, said one supporter.
Alongside a picture of a Wonder Woman sweatshirt, one fan wrote: “Thought about you at my chemo today. You have been so inspirational to me. You beat it once and you will beat it again. Chemo is crap but you’re winning.”

Jacquie first had breast cancer in 2013, before going into remission, but sadly announced at the weekend it had come back as stage three.
Explaining she now faced another battle, she shared an emotional video on Twitter, she said: “During lockdown, I took my own advice, did a check, found a tiny, tiny little lump just here (pointing to the top of her right breast).
“Had it checked out and biopsied straight away and turns out it’s a grade three breast cancer. Much nastier than the first one I had.”
She continued: “For the last four weeks, myself and my family have been walking through a living nightmare, but I am where I am.
“I’ve got a great medical team around me, my amazing family and all the support of my friends and I’ve just got to get on with it. And I am.”
