Sarah Beeny has opened up on how she navigated 'bumps' in her 22 year year marriage to husband Graham Swift during her devastating cancer battle. The TV star, 52, was diagnosed with breast cancer in August 2022 and underwent gruelling chemotherapy, as well as a double mastectomy.

During the process, Sarah was supported by artist husband Graham, 51, and their four sons, but in a new interview admitted that things were not all 'plain sailing'. The Property Ladder presenter told how Graham had been her rock throughout her ill health and 'stepped up' when she needed to, but without going too far with his assistance.

She told OK! magazine: 'There are bumps along the way in life and marriage – it’s not all plain sailing. But during my cancer treatment, Graham was absolutely as I’d expected him to be – great, because he’s a good man. 'I don’t have a husband who will come in with tea trays, I don’t have a butler! But I don’t want one, I’d find that annoying. Whenever he’s needed to step up, he’s stepped up, and that was one of those times.'.
