Speaking to the Times, Chris said: “We both decided we would take on the challenge as we both know someone who has been affected by cancer.
“My main reason for doing the challenge was that my fiancee’s uncle recently passed away from cancer.
“This is an illness that impacts so many people and leaves families in devastation and heartache in its wake.
