Kym's agony over ill dad

Wilding stands in on Morning Live as star struggles with sickness

- TOM BRYANT

KYM Marsh was forced to pull out of presenting Morning Live because of a "possibly stress-related" illness as she struggles to cope with her father's terminal cancer diagnosis.

The 47-year-old presenter was due to host the BBC breakfast show yesterday with Gethin Jones but was replaced by Rav Wilding at the last minute.

Former Coronation Street actress and Hear'Say singer Kym has spoken about father Dave's prostate cancer since he was diagnosed in 2021.

Last month, her parents appeared on the show to provide an update on his condition and Kym revealed they were living "day by day" as the cancer had spread into the 73-year-old's bones.
