Calum Best shares sweet tribute to ‘fighter’ mum Angie as she returns to UK after treatment amid cancer battle
CALUM Best shared a sweet tribute to his ‘fighter’ mum Angie as she returned to the UK after treatment amid her colon cancer battle.
Angie, 74, announced that she was diagnosed with the disease in January and in July was told that she was cancer free.
Over the past year she has kept fans up to date while undergoing traditional medicine, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, as well as an alternative mistletoe therapy in Switzerland.
Now Angie is back in the UK with her son.
Calum shared a snap of their pair cuddled up together in the airport car park, as well as one of her approaching him in arrivals.
He captioned the post: “Right then, she’s back on UK soil, let’s get you healed, fed healthy and fighting fit!
“From me to you mother, I’m so proud of what a strong fighter you are, this last year has been hell and u have managed it with such grace, a year or treatments.
“Surgerys and all the rest are not easy and you have powered through it so well and we will continue to.
“What I also want to say is a huge thank you to everyone so far on this journey, so many people asking and involved both in person and through social media, thank you for caring about Angie.”
Many rushed the comments section to share the love.
One said: “Oh wow.. so pleased to see this, right where you belong.. no place like home!”
Another wrote: “Such a beautiful Mother and Son relationship. Rest up now Angie, you’re incredible.”
A third chimed in: “Sending you both love and hugs.”
A fourth commented: “How incredible to go through such a journey and looks so beautiful and be an inspiration to us all!!!!!”
“Wonderful news ,you mum is definitely a true fighter 💪❤️wishing her well,” a fifth added.
Last month Angie revealed that she’s back in hospital after suffering a ‘setback’ following battle with cancer.
Taking to her page earlier today, Angie said: “Update my homies. I find myself back in the hospital.
“I have an infection. They think it’s bacterial. Bt I have to stay here a few days for results and to make it better.
“See you on the other side.”
After major surgery to remove a tumour from her colon in July, Angie revealed that she was cancer free.
Angie and footballer ex George Best are Calum’s parents.
Calum is a reality star who has been on Celebrity Love Island, Celebrity Big Brother and Celebrity SAS.
