Celebrity Gogglebox and EastEnders star Martin Kemp has reflected on his brain tumour diagnosis on his latest podcast episode with son Roman Kemp.

Martin and Roman Kemp are often spotted on their sofa taking part in Celebrity Gogglebox on Channel 4.

During the segment, the Spandau Ballet star revealed to his son how much longer he believes he has left to live following a brain tumour diagnosis in the early 1990s.Reflecting on his previous health “scare”, he explained:"But I was the age of 34 when I went through all that brain tumour scare and I went through two years of my life thinking I was going to die.

He added:"But I was quite happy, because I’d lived the most incredible experiences. I lived through the 80s in a rock band, the people I met, the things I’d done. When I was 17 I was flying around Europe on jets drinking champagne at 7am." Speaking on the Dish podcast in 2022, he said:"Everybody around me was saying, ‘Don’t do it, don’t do it. It’s going to ruin your career, don’t do it’.”
