A Place In The Sun's Jonnie Irwin, who died at the age of 48, was praised for his bravery after he shared his journey with terminal lung cancer with his fans.
Jonnie Irwin , the much-loved presenter of A Place in the Sun, must have known he had only a week left to live, according to his devastated fans.
Jonnie was always honest about the harsh realities of his condition, regularly sharing updates with his followers on Instagram. His final video showed him filming the new windows he'd installed at his home, a post that hit hard for many following the news of his death. Another added: "Making changes to his family house as if to make them comfortable after. What a gentleman, loved him on the programmes."
Jonnie also took steps to secure his family's financial future by purchasing the Newcastle house where his boys reside, ensuring they would not be burdened by a mortgage. The statement continued, requesting privacy for the grieving family: "At this time, we kindly ask for the privacy of Jonnie's family as they navigate through this profound loss. Their grief is immeasurable, and your thoughts, prayers, and support are deeply appreciated.
"He has given me more than I could ever have wished for, eight bonkers years of love and adventure and three amazing boys. I will continue to make you proud but only with your love still finding me and guiding me for the rest of my life, me and the boys still need you.
