Nolan isn’t the first member of her family to battle with the deadly disease. Their father, Tommy Nolan Sr, was the first to fall victim from the devastating disease when he lost his battle with cancer in 1998.

Sister Bernie, Anne, Linda and Coleen, all received cancer diagnoses throughout their life.

Anne was the first of the sisters to be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2000. At the time, she underwent chemotherapy, radiotherapy and “an operation”.

Her cancer returned two decades later. It was two separate cancers and underwent further chemotherapy, radiotherapy and another operation.

Thankfully she was given the all-clear back in 2024. Tragically, Bernie passed away in 2013 at the age of 52.

Initially diagnosed with breast cancer in April 2010, she was celebrating remission by October that year after undergoing extensive treatments.

However, her triumph was short-lived. In February 2010, she stopped taking cancer medication in February 2012 and the cancer returned later that year.

Despite fighting bravely, Bernie succumbed to the disease at her Surrey home in July 2013.

Coleen Nolan discovered in July 2023 that she had basal cell carcinoma on her should and a pre-cancerous melanoma on her face.

The youngest Nolan sister was warned if it was left untreated it could grow into the deadliest type of skin cancer, melanoma – which can spread across the body.

Since then, the Loose Women star has had it removed. Speaking last year, she said: “I got skin cancer last year [2023]. I had carcinoma on my shoulder which has now gone and had chemo cream on my shoulder so that burned that off.”

The TV presenter admitted she frequently checks for signs of cancer because so many members of her family have had it.
