Johnny Ruffo, a star of Home and Away, has provided an update since learning that he has terminal cancer.

After the sudden return of his brain cancer in 2020, the actor, well known for his portrayal of Chris Harrington in the Australian soap, started a second round of chemotherapy this week.

He announced at the time that his brain cancer had returned, writing: “After an unexpected week of seizures and painful headaches it is with a heavy heart that I have to let you know I now have another enormous struggle ahead of me.”

Although I will fight hard and defeat this dreadful illness once more, I added the hashtag “F**k cancer.”

Regrettably, Johnny revealed in August of last year that his condition was terminal.

‘You can only imagine how tough it’s been for her’, he stated on The Project in 2022, reflecting on how the sickness has impacted his partner, Tahnee Sims.

I detest to admit it, but I often consider how difficult it may be for her if something were to happen to me.

I don’t want to think about it, so that’s why. That simply makes me a little bit emotional because I know something will happen eventually, whether it’s in a month, ten years, or twenty.

The actor visited the hospital once more on Wednesday, this time with his fiancée by his side for support.

Naturally, the actor got a lot of kind feedback on the post. Actress Emily Symons wrote: “Sending you so much love Johnny,” and Georgie Parker wrote: “Much love to you mate. Huge love.
