Jonnie Irwin continues to make most of summer holidays with family
The former A Place In The Sun presenter shared pictures of himself on the British coast with his wife and kids.
Jonnie Irwin is continuing to make the most of the summer holidays with his family as they spend time on the British coast.
The former A Place In The Sun presenter - who announced in November 2022 he has terminal lung cancer which has spread to his brain - shared pictures of himself at the beach with with wife Jess and their three sons.
Irwin, 49, posted photos on Instagram captioned: "Just grabbed a few days up the coast. Rain or shine Beadnell always impresses. #bayistheway "
The pictures show the children buried in the sand, wife Jess paddleboarding, Irwin enjoying an ice cream with one of the boys and his other son learning to surf.
Irwin is father to four-and-a-half-year-old Rex and three-year-old twins Rafa and Cormac.
While the Escape To The Country presenter used to travel around Europe for work hosting A Place In The Sun, he must now staycation in the UK while he continues to undergo palliative care for his incurable cancer.
Irwin recently revealed he had been for a check-up at a mobile scanning unit in a leisure centre carpark.
The TV presenter added: "I actually had a great experience. We were able to park almost on the doorstep, no queue and done n dusted in under 15 minutes. Well done NHS."

Irwin kept his diagnosis a secret for two years, and when he told producers of the Channel 4 holiday property show he had terminal cancer, he was dropped because he was told they were unable to insure him to work.
He said he felt "thrown on the scrap heap".
Irwin was given six months by doctors to live back in 2020 when he received his diagnosis and has said doctors did not expect him to see 2023.
The Escape To The Country presenter - who is parent to - recently admitted he has "up days and down days."
Chemotherapy and cancer drugs have helped extend the initial prognosis and the TV presenter is determined to make the most of any time he has left with his family.
Irwin told BBC's Morning Live in July: "I'm really good. I have up days and down days, but today's very much an up day. The family are great and very noisy."
He recently shared a post of himself cycling with all three of his sons in a trailer, even though he admitted to being "a lot weaker these days".
In July Irwin revealed that he has been receiving palliative care for the past three years, insisting that hospice care did not have to mean "doom and gloom".
Irwin attended the TRIC Awards in June and said: "I wanted to show that because you have cancer it doesn't mean you are a different person.
“You can still work. Look at me now. I don't think the doctors were expecting me to make 2023 but here I am and I'm available at work."
