JULIA Bradbury is a familiar face on the box, thanks to her long career as a broadcaster.
The former Countryfile presenter is battling breast cancer, and is being supported by her husband Gerard Cunningham.
Who is Julia Bradbury's husband Gerard Cunningham?
Gerard is a property developer and the pair got married in a low-key ceremony in 2000.
Unlike his famous wife Julia, he tends to keep out of the spotlight.
Not much is known about Gerard, as Julia keels their relationship private.
However she has praised her husband's fathering skills.
"Gerry's a very loving, caring parent, and his cuddles are as important as mine," she told HELLO! magazine.
"If I'm on the other side of the world or on a shoot up a mountain and you can't get me because my phone's off, he's the go-to daddy."
Do they have kids?
The couple have three children -son Zephyrus, 10, and twin daughters Xanthe and Zena, who are seven-years-old.
Julia fell pregnant with their first-born in 2011, despite suffering from endometriosis.
"I've always wanted children but I wasn't sure it would happen, because I'm relatively old to be having a first baby," the 51-year-old ITV presenter told HELLO!
The couple went on to welcome twin daughters in 2015 after five rounds of IVF.
She told HELLO! she was "gobsmacked" to discover that she would be expecting twins.
"It's not an impossibility when you go through IVF. But when we found out at the first scan, we were gobsmacked. It was like 'Okay, deep breath'."
On Garard's support, she added: "He knows what I've been going through and said if I could do it, he would have.
"But he's equally passionate about siblings for Zeph – he's one of eight.
"There was never a moment when he said, 'Oh God, it's twins.' He was like, 'Brilliant.' If he could squeeze in four or more, he'd be happy."
When was Julia diagnosed with breast cancer?
In 2021 Julia found a lump in her breast and was diagnosed with cancer
The TV presenter bravely underwent a mastectomy to try and stop the cancer from spreading as part of her treatment.
She told fans on Instagram: "I had no idea what life after a #mastectomy would be like.
"I feel incredibly grateful that some things have gone my way during my breast cancer diagnosis. Each of our stories is different.
"I was fortunate to be able to have immediate reconstruction after my breast was removed containing a 6cm tumour.
"Nothing prepares you for the shock & impact...& yet but here I am in a bikini again. Didn't think this would happen."
