Antiques Roadshow specialist Theo Burrell has revealed undergoing brain surgery after a diagnosis with a terminal, grade four tumour. The 38-year-old presenter shared an image of her shaved head and surgical stitches, calling it a 'war wound'. Burrell, diagnosed with aggressive glioblastoma in 2022, is undergoing treatment and has a two-year prognosis.
She continues to appear on the BBC show between treatments. Despite facing significant fatigue and side effects from chemotherapy, Burrell has had scans showing no active cancer cells. She is managing the ongoing treatment, focusing on small victories, and cherishes milestones like her son starting school, moments she feared she might miss.
