ImACeleb star Scarlette Douglas has spoken out on her A Place In The Sun co-star Jonnie Irwin’s ‘devastating’ terminal cancer diagnosis.
His co-stars were quick to share their love and support, but Scarlette‘I had heard but I didn’t realise it was terminal which makes it sound imminent,’ she said after her exit.: ‘I knew that he wasn’t well, but I didn’t know this. I’ve come out and been told there was something in the papers that he is not well. I didn’t know the true extent of it.
Jonnie first got a warning sign that something wasn’t quite right in August 2020, when he was in Italy, filming for A Place in the Sun.‘Within a week of flying back from filming, I was being given six months to live,’ he said. ‘I had to go home and tell my wife, who was looking after our babies, that she was on her own pretty much. That was devastating. All I could do was apologise to her. I felt so responsible.
Speaking about why he wants to speak out about his cancer, he admitted it felt like he was ‘carrying a dirty secret’ and he wants to now ‘inspire people who are living with life-limiting prospects to make the most of every day.’
