Anne Nolan shares 'traumatic' moment she received cancer update
Anne Nolan has opened up about the emotional moment she found out she was cancer free.
The Nolans singer, and sister of Loose Women's Coleen Nolan, has battled breast cancer twice.
Earlier this year, the family lost Linda to the disease, while Bernie died of the same illness in 2013.
Anne, 74, received the news just days ago that she was cancer-free, having been first diagnosed in 2000 and then 20 years later.
Appearing on Monday's Good Morning Britain, she shared the emotional journey she's faced, and the relief at her health update.
"It's been very traumatic, when I received the letter a few weeks ago, I picked it up, and it said NHS, and I thought, 'Oh I don't want to know, I'm not sure if I want to know if it's bad news.'
"And I put it aside for about ten minutes, and after a while my logical brain kicked in and said, 'You have to find out, you need to know'.
"I opened it and it was all good news, and I had a bit of a weep at the beginning.
"I feel lucky, blessed, relieved, and then emotional thinking about my sisters having gone through the same thing but not surviving."
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV1 and ITVX.

The Chase star Anne Hegerty to feature in new horror film
The 67-year-old has been part of the popular ITV series hosted by Bradley Walsh for 15 years, but has announced she has now landed a 'fun' cameo in Deadcast. Anne, who is also known as The Governess, revealed: 'I recently filmed a cameo in a very low-budget horror movie. I mean, it's so low budget I've been offered a share in the profits.' The I'm a Celebrity star also told OK! magazine: 'It's called Deadcast, and it's about a couple of guys who do a podcast about the supernatural. They head off to Lincolnshire to interview people who've had spooky experiences, and end up getting more than they bargained for.' Sharing details about her character, Anne continued: 'I play a woman who saw a UFO, put it on the internet and got massively trolled and ended up becoming a recluse. "There's a scene where they interview me in my garden and I'm showing them where I saw the UFO. 'I say, 'they've been with me my whole life. It doesn't matter where I go, they follow me.' And just at that precise moment, an ice cream van passes playing Teddy Bears' Picnic. It was a lot of fun.'

My agent tried to get me to do it ages ago, but I couldn't even formulate the words to say, 'I think this is a bl**dy terrible idea.' 'I can't dance to save my life. When I'm in panto, you can make me sing a bit but, whatever you do, don't make me dance. Have everyone dance around me, like a maypole.'

Coronation Street Becky Swain's real killer 'solved' as villain's return 'sealed'
Coronation Street fans think a former villain will be revealed as the person who orchestrated the death of Lisa Swain's wife Becky Swain, and DI Costello could be involved Becky Swain's real killer on Coronation Street may have been rumbled according to fans of the ITV soap. This week's episodes have left them convinced that an existing character is involved in Becky's death and a possible cover-up. Not only that, but fans think a past villain may return and be revealed as the reason Becky is dead. It comes as Lisa Swain continued to dig into her late wife's demise in recent scenes, after suggestion she may have been a corrupt officer. DI Costello downplayed this as he called out Lisa for sneaking onto his computer to access Becky's files. Costello's reaction, the comments from Logan Radcliffe to Lisa's partner Carla Connor and a scene with Lisa's therapist Floyd have now left fans certain a cover-up is confirmed. Not only that, but they think they have figured out how everything ties together. With Costello appearing to know more than he's letting on, fans think he is harbouring the true events that led to Becky's demise, or at least what happened to her. Logan knows something too, with it revealed earlier this year that he and his brother Matty Radcliffe were driving the car that hit and killed her. Then there's Floyd's weird comment to a mystery person on the phone about a "breakthrough" with Lisa during a session, moments after she confessed her fears Becky was corrupt. Fans are now wondering if Floyd is also involved. But it's a former villain that some fans are convinced knows something, and could even be Becky's killer - or the person who made it happen. Costello could also be tied in according to the theory, and it could see said villain return to the soap. Logan and Matty were revealed to be working for former baddie Harvey Gaskell months ago. He targeted David Platt via the brothers, and now fans are wondering if he was up to no good with either Becky involved, or she figured out what was going on. Fans have wondered if Costello is corrupt and may have been in cahoots with Harvey, and either he or Harvey had the Radcliffe brothers silence Becky - either because she was about to expose them or because she was involved. Taking to social media, fans theorised Harvey would soon be revealed to be the killer, and this is the "mutual friend" who orchestrated an attack, it seems, on Logan in prison on Friday.

Becky was 'caught out', an investigation opened and Harvey, seeing her as a liability gets the Radcliffe's to kill her and Costello to cover it up." Another fan said: "Now I've a feeling that either the counsellor guy or Costello are involved in someway in Becky's death." A third fan said: "Costello is definitely part of this whole thing. 'He's been worried about me since Becky died'. He f***ing killed her."
