Hairdresser to the stars Trevor Sorbie has revealed he has terminal bowel cancer and has just weeks to live.
Appearing on This Morning on Wednesday, Trevor revealed the sad news and said he found out in June he has around six months left.
He said: ‘I lost a lot of blood one night and was unusually disturbed so went to hospital. They told me I had bowel cancer and I had a little panic attack.
‘I looked at Carol and she looked at me, we were both speechless, didn’t know what to say. So I went and had a big gin and tonic.’
It then spread to his liver and he had a six and a half hour operation, he came back and he had another six and a half hour operation.

Trevor admitted his fears he may not make it until Christmas, but is determined to stay positive.
He continued: ‘I go to work, well up until two weeks ago, two days a week. Because that’s my medicine. That’s my life.
‘Sixty years I’ve worked passionately to achieve beyond my wildest dreams. When I go in it’s my staff, I’ve had them for 30 years, I’m just one of the team.
‘I had a nurse come round the other day to assess me and as I asked ‘Will I make Christmas?’ She said ‘I don’t know Trevor’.
‘I said “I damn well will”. The brain rules the body. The heart plays a big part as well but that is the engine.
#Because I’ve got a charity I’ve helped many women through cancer, cutting wigs for them. People handle it in different ways.
‘There is no one way, no right way, wrong way. It is however that person deals with it. If you get this right (the brain) and it’s easy for me to say get that right.
‘You can fight this. Doctors have even said you’re breaking medical science, you shouldn’t be here right now. Last night we went out and just had a lovely dinner.’
Trevor is the creator of the wedge haircut and a four-time British Hairdresser of the Year winner. He was appointed an MBE in 2004.
