Yahoo News Jonnie Irwin celebrates wedding anniversary with date night
The former A Place In The Sun presenter shared a photograph of the couple enjoying a romantic meal together.
Jonnie Irwin and his wife Jess have celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary with a date night out together.
The former A Place In The Sun presenter - who announced in November 2022 he has terminal lung cancer - shared a photograph of the couple enjoying a romantic meal at a Mediterranean restaurant in Newcastle Upon Tyne.
Irwin, 49, captioned the picture on social media: "7 years married to this Angel. I use this term because the love she shows to others is beyond comparison. Last night was just us; chatting, planning and gossiping. So good. Amazing food and staff at @lovagejesmond made our evening perfect. #anniversary "
The Escape To The Country star has previously spoken about adopting a special diet in a bid to "starve" his tumours and slow their growth, as advised by cancer survivor Jane Mclelland author of a book called How To Starve Cancer.
The couple are parents to three sons - four-and-a-half-year-old Rex and three-year-old twins Rafa and Cormac.
They married in 2016 and enjoyed a honeymoon in the Lake District.
They are currently renovating their dream family home together in Newcastle Upon Tyne.
Irwin recently revealed his cancer is "on the move".
The TV presenter was given six months by doctors to live back in 2020 and kept his diagnosis a secret from TV producers because he feared losing his job.
He is currently undergoing palliative care for his incurable cancer which has spread to his brain.
Irwin has previously said doctors did not expect him to see 2023.
He has updated fans throughout the summer with photos of himself making the most of time with his family, including wife Jess.
They have enjoyed a family day out to a wildlife park in Yorkshire, a staycation at the beach in Northumberland, and a relaxing stay at a four star hotel in Worcestershire.

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".
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 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."
