Chris Hughes reveals his brother's testicular cancer diagnosis

Love Island's Chris Hughes, who had a testicular cancer check live on our show in November has said that his brother has been diagnosed with the disease.

The reality star says his brother Ben checked for lumps the day after Chris was on the show.

Chris revealed the news on his Instagram account, saying:

'My brother was diagnosed with testicular cancer this lunchtime, in which we pray for a kind prognosis. He came into my room at 3am the morning after my testicular examination on tv, clearly struggling to sleep, telling me he’d found a lump and asked me if he’s checking it right.'

'To which I told him, ‘Ben, it’s 3am, I’ll look in the morning, but if there’s a lump, go and check it checked tomorrow with the doctor’. Today he sent me a message telling me the news, and thanking me for making him aware, else he’d never have known he had cancer.'

'That literally broke my heart. Testicular cancer is a silent killer, men need realise this and check themselves regularly. It takes 10 seconds. Please do it.'
