      He leaves behind wife Jess, his eldest son Rex, and twins Rafa and Cormac, born in June 2020.
      Jonnie met wife Jess through mutual friends in summer 2015 and both said they knew they had met ‘The One’.
      Jess, 41, was left devastated by her husband’s illness but told of his will to live for her and the boys
      She previously said: “He’s stubborn and determined and he’s a scrapper.
      “If I ever think about the reality it absolutely breaks my heart, for the boys and for Jonnie.
      “It’s just very unfair and I’m angry at how much it’s ruined the last couple of years, how much it’s taken away from us enjoying having a new family.
      The Escape to the Country star had previously told The Sun of his sorrow at not being able to see his children grow up.

      In 2004, he was selected among thousands of applicants to present A Place in the Sun on Channel 4.
      He filmed over 200 episodes as he helped British house hunters achieve their dream of buying a place abroad.
      The gig helped put Jonnie on the presenting map and he went on to front BBC property shows Escape to the Country and To Buy or Not to Buy.
      He also hosted Escape to the Perfect Town and Sky1 show Dream Lives for Sale in 2011, which saw him help people leave their lives in the UK behind to set up a business.

      Two seasons of the spin-off show have already been commissioned, and it will be called A Place in the Sun What Happened Next?
      The property experts paying a visit to previous participants on the show include audience favourites such as Laura Hamilton, Jean Johansson, and Danni Menzies.
      Amanda Lamb will also make a reappearance as she pops in on Mike and Fiona from Derbyshire who she helped find a holiday home in France.
      Curious viewers will get a glimpse of what life is like in warmer climates, and see whether those who made the big move are happy with their dream homes.
      Channel 4’s Jo Street said: “A Place in the Sun is such a beloved show, and we know the audience really cares what happens to the house-hunters once the cameras leave.
      “What a treat to catch up and see what happened when that offer was finally accepted.”
