Ben Fordham has announced that his dad's cancer has returned.
The 42-year-old journalist made the announcement during an interview with his father, John Fordham, on Sky News on Thursday.
Ben invited the 75-year-old celebrity agent to discuss his career in the media as well as his head and neck cancer, which he was first diagnosed with two years ago.
Ben explained to viewers that John first suspected he had cancer during a family holiday in 2017.

'That was a shock, no one wants to get that news,' John said of the diagnosis.
