A Place in the Sun star Jonnie Irwin has worried fans after revealing he is feeling “pretty unwell” in his latest health update.
Father-of-three Jonnie revealed in November last year that he could have just months to live after being diagnosed with terminal lung cancer two years earlier, which had spread to his brain.
A series of recent upbeat Instagram posts by the 49-year-old offered hope the presenter was in a good place, but sadly now things appear to have taken a turn for the worse.

Jonnie recently opened up about a big regret amid his terminal cancer fight, saying he wants people to learn from his “mistake”.
Speaking on AIG Life’s The OneChat podcast, Jonnie said he wanted to leave a “positive footprint” in the world as he talked about what he wished he’d done different.
“I want people to learn from my mistake,” he said. “I didn’t take critical illness insurance out and therefore I had to keep working. Without work, I’ve got no means of paying the bills.”
