Jonnie - who married Jessica in 2016 - died in 2024 after a gruelling illness. He was initially diagnosed with lung cancer in 2020 and later explained that it had spread to his brain.

Within a week of flying back from filming, I was being given six months to live, he told the Sun of his condition. I had to go home and tell my wife, who was looking after our babies, that she was on her own, pretty much.

That was devastating. All I could do was apologise to her. I felt so responsible.

Jessica - who welcomed sons Rafa, Rex and Cormac with Jonnie - confirmed the sad news of his death on Instagram at the time.

"It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of Jonnies passing. A truly remarkable soul, he fought bravely against cancer with unwavering strength and courage, she said.

"Jonnie touched the lives of so many with his kindness, warmth, and infectious spirit. At this time, we kindly ask for the privacy of Jonnies family as they navigate through this profound loss. Their grief is immeasurable, and your thoughts, prayers, and support are deeply appreciated.

As we remember the beautiful moments shared with Jonnie, let us celebrate a life well-lived and a legacy that will forever be etched in our hearts. Jonnie may be gone from our sight, but his love, laughter, and memories will live on. Rest in peace, dear Jonnie. You will be dearly missed, but never forgotten."
