Blackpool's Linda Nolan completes chemotherapy
Singer Linda Nolan has "rung the bell" to signify the end of her chemotherapy treatment for cancer.
The 61-year-old singer, actress and entertainer tweeted a photo of herself and said: "I RANG THE BELL TODAY!"
And she revealed that she and sister Anne had done an exclusive photoshoot and interview for next week’s Hello! magazine.
Linda has undergone chemotherapy for liver cancer, having been given the news within days of her sister, Anne, being told her breast cancer had returned, exactly 20 years after she was first diagnosed.
Linda and Anne, who performed together as part of the family girls pop group The Nolans, were given the shock news by doctors shortly after they wrapped up filming for their new show, Nolans Go Cruising, in March.
They went public with the news and Linda said recently the response has been overwhelming, from those in and around Lancashire, particularly Fylde, which she still calls home.
She said: “Absolutely amazing - we’re always overwhelmed when something happens, the response you get from people who have kind of known you all your life really.
“They feel they’ve grown up with you when you’re a performer and especially in Blackpool, it’s our hometown."
