Sky Sports presenter Jo Wilson wrongly told cancer had returned

Sky Sports News presenter Jo Wilson has revealed she was wrongly told her cervical cancer had returned, months after completing treatment.

The journalist, who was diagnosed with stage three cervical cancer in September 2022, had undergone a routine three-year scan that, she says, mistakenly indicated the disease had come back. The error was later discovered, but not before causing significant distress.
