Bloody hell.. the very funny & charming @JaneyGodley has just been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. As an ambassador of @OvarianCancerUK & someone currently going through #breastcancer I urge you all to be aware of your bodies, watch out for symptoms & look after your health. ❤️❤️

I followed their journey for @BBCLookNorth

Thank you for keeping her happy and smiling 😊
