The 40-year-old journalist - who began hosting the 'You, Me and the Big C' podcast when she was diagnosed with bowel cancer back in 2018 before learning it was terminal - has teamed up with In The Style to launch a collection that includes a range of sloganed t-shirts and floral dresses with all of the profits going to charity.
