Abby has not revealed the type of cancer she has, but said she had only a single symptom before speaking to a doctor.<\/p>\n

She wrote on Instagram: ‘This was and is the toughest yet. I’m unlucky, but lucky, to have been warned only once with a symptom of this terrible illness.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘With huge thanks to the NHS for saving my life & taking good care of me when I felt so scared & most vulnerable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Support: Former rugby player Ben, 44, has joined the line-up because he wants to support his ex-wife Abby, who revealed she’s been diagnosed with cancer and has had a stoma bag fitted<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Footballer and TV personality Ashley Cain, 32, who tragically lost his infant daughter\u00a0Azaylia to cancer in April 2021 when she was just eight months old\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I can’t express enough how lucky I am to have such amazing family\u00a0 and friends that have helped me through this incredibly tough journey.<\/p>\n

‘Never ignore your body when it’s trying to warn you, I didn’t and it’s given me a chance to live my new life. In time and with the right treatment.<\/p>\n

‘I’m hoping this WILL all be a distant memory for me.\u00a0You never know how strong you are until it’s your only choice. #F**kcancer.’<\/p>\n

The Real Full Monty first aired in 2017\u00a0featuring eight male celebrities. In the years since Dancing On Ice and Strictly Come Dancing themed specials have aired.<\/p>\n
