Jonnie, who presents A Place In The Sun and the BBC's Escape To The Country, exclusively told HELLO! in this week's issue that he has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
"I don't know how long I have left, but I try to stay positive and my attitude is that I'm living with cancer, not dying from it," he said. "I set little markers - things I want to be around for. I got into the habit of saying: 'Don't plan ahead because I might not be well enough.'

"But now I want to make plans. I want to make memories and capture these moments with my family because the reality is, my boys are going to grow up not knowing their dad and that breaks my heart."
Jonnie shares three-year-old son Rex and two-year-old twins Rafa and Cormac with his wife Jessica, but until this week had kept his illness private.
