Robbie Williams’ wife Ayda Field has shared a ‘shocking and difficult’ update to fans confirming her mother Gwen’s cervical cancer has returned.
The 45-year-old TV personality shared a set of photos of herself, and her family with her 73-year-old mother, who she called her ‘very best friend’, as she undergoes treatment.
The candid caption continues: ‘What you may not know, is that my best friend is currently fighting for her life.
‘A couple of months ago, my mother, a breast cancer survivor (and thriver) was given the news that her cervical cancer had come back and metastasized.
‘The news has been shocking and difficult for us all to privately process. She’s cried. I’ve cried. We’ve all cried together.
‘There have been many moments of deep sadness. And yet, also moments of profound beauty and joy, in very unexpected ways.

This is a battle. And what my mother has lost in hair and weight, she has more than gained in strength and bravery.
‘I am lucky to have such a warrior mummy showing me the way. And I have deep gratitude, that in this moment right now, she is here to fight another day.’
The screenstar concluded her post by standing in ‘solidarity’ with all those affected by cancer, adding she is ‘ready to fight back with you.’
‘F**k cancer,’ she wrote.
Messages of support have flooded the comments.
