A Place in the Sun star Jonnie Irwin reveals health update after terminal cancer diagnosis | The Sun

JONNIE Irwin has shared a health update with fans following his terminal cancer diagnosis.

The A Place in the Sun presenter, 49, revealed in November that he has terminal lung cancer which has spread to his brain.



Taking to Instagram this week Jonnie told how he'd started hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

He posted a snap taken on a walk before sharing another of a zip up portable chamber.

Jonnie wrote: "At this end of this walk… is this… #hyperbaricoxygentherapy."

The treatment floods the brain with oxygen and is thought to increase the success of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Jonnie, who shares sons Rex, three, and twins Rafa and Cormac, two, with wife Jessica, 40, was previously given just six months to live.

The Escape to the Country host bravely told Hello! Magazine: "I don’t know how long I have left, but I try to stay positive and my attitude is that I'm living with cancer, not dying from it.

"I set little markers – things I want to be around for. I got into the habit of saying: 'Don't plan ahead because I might not be well enough.'

"But now I want to make plans. I want to make memories and capture these moments with my family because the reality is, my boys are going to grow up not knowing their dad and that breaks my heart."
