Linda Nolan says her cancer has spread to her brain in heartbreaking interview
Linda Nolan opened up to Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley on Good Morning Britain to reveal her cancer has spread to her brain in a heartbreaking interview.
The singer was first diagnosed with stage three breast cancer in 2005 before getting the all-clear in 2006, but in 2017 was diagnosed with a form of incurable secondary cancer in her hip, which later spread to her liver in 2020.
She told ITV viewers: "I've always been hopeful with my treatment and what's going on in my life.
"I just want to tell you unfortunately for me my cancer has spread to my brain that's obviously frightening because there isn't much treatment for brain cancer except for chemotherapy."
Linda explained that she had also been offered a new drug to trial alongside the chemotherapy.

She told Susanna and Richard that she's been told by doctors that the new drug has been "hailed as a wonder drug" and she hopes it will do "wonders for [her]."
After pictures emerged over the weekend of Linda visiting a hospital, the singer told her fans she would be appearing on Monday's GMB.
On Sunday, she tweeted: "Thank you all for the love and support, following those pictures coming out this weekend. I’ll be on @GMB tomorrow morning at 8:20am, with some news."
