Eight years ago Chris was given the all-clear following a prostate cancer scare.

But the fear of cancer remains at the forefront of the star’s mind, after losing his dad and two uncles died from colon cancer and his late mum battled breast cancer.

He told The Sun: “For years I was such a scaredy cat – but I’ve had things taken out of me before that had resulted in the deaths of my dad, his two brothers and my mum – cancer has had enough of us.

“I changed my thinking a while ago – when I went to the toilet and there was clearly something very wrong.

"And up until that moment I was fearful of any possible test you could have done.

"For some reason this happened and it was so patently obvious.

“I finished what I was doing and I went and phoned my GP straight away and it was like a revelation for me."
