First Dates star Merlin Griffiths has been met with a flood of support after he gave an update on his cancer battle.
The iconic bartender on the Channel 4 series was diagnosed with cancer in late-2021 and occasionally updates fans on his journey.
On Thursday, the popular drinks expert took to Instagram to update his 151,000 followers with some happy news.
He shared a message that he'd been sent following a health scan which announced he currently has "no signs" of cancer.
It read: "I have some good news for you. Your CT scan result is back. All stable and no signs of any reoccurrence from your bowel cancer. So really good news."
Below the post, he remarked: "#2 year scan, results are back. All good in the 'hood. Thank you #nhs #bowelcancerawareness #bowelcancer."

Another shared: "Just had the same results myself, doesn't it feel good??! Fantastic news!"
