ANTIQUES Roadshow expert Theo Burrell has updated fans on her health.
Theo, 37, a decorative arts specialist, has been part of the BBC show since 2018 and previously shared some heartbreaking news.
She revealed her diagnosis of a grade four glioblastoma, a type of brain tumour.
However, Theo has now shared a positive update with her fans on social media.
Taking to Instagram, she told her followers: “Quick update … stable scan results received today”, followed by a heart emoji.
“June 7 will mark two years since diagnosis”, Theo added.
The good news comes after Theo revealed last year that she was “too shocked to cry” after doctors said her brain tumour would kill her.
Theo was 35 and had just become a first-time mum when she started having intense headaches.
Over the course of six months, Theo visited her GP on numerous occasions as well as out-of-hours clinics, owing to the near constant pain she was in.
Theo also experienced intense exhaustion meaning she could barely get out of bed some days.
After her initial prescription of analgesic drugs and steroids didn’t work, Theo headed to hospital in Edinburgh with her mum in June 2022.
It was there that Theo had a CT scan and had her worst fears confirmed when the doctor told her it was a brain tumour.
Since then, Theo has undergone surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy in a bid to keep the cancer at bay.
She has also been keeping her followers informed about her condition through social media.
Speaking to MailOnline last year, Theo recalled her doctor had told her there are 130 types of brain tumour and “this is the deadliest”.
She shared the doctor informed her the tumour was incurable and the average life expectancy was 12 to 18 months.
Theo continued: “I didn’t cry at the time — I was too shocked — as it began to sink in that this was going to kill me.
“My mind automatically scanned for the things I would miss: getting old with Alex, seeing our son, then just 20 months, grow up, spending time with my parents, my brother, my friends…”
