Inside A Place In The Sun's Jonnie Irwin's Paris trip with wife after being told he has 'months to live' | The Sun
A PLACE in the Sun's Jonnie Irwin has enjoyed a romantic trip to Paris with his wife just days after revealing his cancer diagnosis.
The 48-year-old shocked fans last week after sharing the news that he was initially diagnosed with lung cancer in 2020 and told he had six months to live.
Jonnie, who has three sons with his wife Jessica, sadly told how his boys will grow up not knowing their dad after the cancer has spread to his brain, and he doesn't know how long he will have left.
Jonnie received a wave of support from his A Place in the Sun colleagues as well as fans, and has jetted off to the French capital with Jessica to take it all in.
Sharing a sweet snap of them posing by the River Seine with Notre-Dame behind them, Jonnie wrote: "Been a hell of a week.
"I’m bowled over by the lovely messages thank you all so much. As touching as it’s been, I’ve also found it quite surreal – almost like we’re talking about some else.
