Amanda Holden looks chic in a white ensemble as she steps out after brave friend Jamie Theakston revealed his throat cancer diagnosis


Amanda Holden stepped out in a chic white outfit in London on Tuesday after her brave friend Jamie Theakston revealed his throat cancer diagnosis.

According to the NHS, symptoms of laryngeal cancer include a change in your voice, such as sounding hoarse, pain when swallowing, a lump or swelling in your neck, a long-lasting cough or breathlessness, a persistent sore throat or earache and in the most severe cases, difficulty breathing. Doctors found a lesion on my vocal chords which I've had removed this weekend - thanks for all the kind messages - should be back on my feet soon - in the meantime...' and finished the post with a zip-up mouth emoji. Following news of Jamie's diagnosis, Davina was a guest on the Heart Breakfast show, where she joked that while filling in for Amanda back in June, she feared she caused her co-star's throat problems by 'throttling him with a bear hug.'
