TV presenter Sarah Beeny has shaved her head after most of her hair fell out as she undergoes chemotherapy for breast cancer.
The property expert, 50, announced last month she is fighting through a course of chemotherapy, and will also start radiotherapy in the new year.
Sarah's four sons cut a lot of her hair off before it fell out, but now Sarah has shaved the remainder off after it fell out in clumps.
Taking to Instagram today, Sarah shared a picture of her hand holding a clump of hair, with the caption saying: "Sort of much harder that I expected it to be when it happened - in 24 hrs most hair fell out and I’ve shaved the rest off - onward and upward! X"
Her friends and followers rallied around the star of Help! My House Is Falling Down, with one person writing: "Sending all my love and light. You can fight this Sarah, if anyone can, you can."
Another penned: "I found this to be the toughest step in the whole process. Even worse than the mastectomy. Sending you huge hugs. "
In another Instagram post from today, Sarah shared a photo of herself wearing a blonde wig, as she smiled with her adorable dog in a field of wild flowers.
She wrote: "A handful of wild flower seeds and a bit of patience!!!! (One of us might be wearing a very good wig….!!) xx"
The star of Sarah Beeny's New Life In The Country previously admitted she had "a little bit of a breakdown" after receiving the news in a hospital consultation room and has vowed not to lie to her kids about her diagnosis.
Speaking of her diagnosis and support team, Sarah told the Telegraph : "I'm lucky because I live in a family where we all talk."
She told how her son had asked if she was ok before she told him of her cancer and had a chat with them all.
Sarah continued: "They just said, ‘You will be honest?’ and I said, ‘I promise you that I’m going to be around for a jolly long time yet. It’s going to be a bit difficult. But I promise I won’t lie.’ And I think they were OK once I said that."
The presenter, who has been married to artist Graham Swift since 2003, went on to add that she plans to draw on her "inner strength" throughout her treatment process.
Sarah lost her mother to cancer when she was 10 years old. She had fought breast cancer before also being diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Despite her diagnosis, Sarah is adamant she will continue working and has her sights focused on a new Channel 4 series.
She also has a book which is set for release later in the year.
