Louis Walsh vowed to be a 'better person' after being diagnosed and recovering from a rare form of blood cancer called Waldenstrom macroglobulinaemia.
“I didn’t even know I had it until I went to the hospital. They checked me and then they found it.” The star was a divisive character on the programme due to his brutally honest opinions about his fellow housemates and the stars he has worked with in the past - including Jedward and Ronan Keating.Louis' three-week stint saw many people beg producers to kick him out of the show, but many others wanted him to stay as he brought the drama and provided everyone with showbiz gossip.
