Martin Kemp, 62, predicts he has 10 years left to live as he tells his son ... trends now

Martin Kemp told his son Roman that his previous brain tumour diagnoses left him 'resigned to the fact that I was going to die'.

The Spandau Ballet bassist, 62, was diagnosed with two brain tumours in the '90s and had to undergo radiotherapy and surgery to have them removed. 

While the benign growths were successfully removed and have not reoccurred, Martin continued to battle epilepsy as a side effect.

Speaking on the first episode of his and Roman's podcast FFS! My Dad Is Martin Kemp, aptly titled Death, Martin and Roman, 31, got candid about the subject.

At one point, Roman asked Martin how much longer he thinks he'll be alive. Martin replies: 'I'll be really honest with you, 10 years.'
