In March, Johnny started another round of chemotherapy and posted a photo of himself undergoing treatment at the hospital with his girlfriend Tahnee by his side.

The actor put on a brave face, smiled and gave thumbs up while sitting in a chair.

“Back in my favorite chair,” he wrote sarcastically alongside the hashtags #ihatethischair and #f**kcancer.

In December, Johnny marked another year of undergoing chemotherapy and revealed that he was looking forward to taking a break and spending time with family over Christmas.

‘Another year of chemotherapy behind us. It wasn’t easy, but I made it,” he wrote at the time.

‘I can’t wait to take a few weeks off over Christmas and spend some well deserved time with my family. #f**kcancer.’

In August 2022, he confirmed his brain cancer diagnosis was terminal and said he feared how his girlfriend Tahnee would cope with him gone.

“You can only imagine how hard it’s been for her,” he said on The Project.

“What’s on my mind a lot is, I hate saying this, no matter how hard it can be for her if something happens to me.

“So it’s something I don’t want to think about. It just makes me a little emotional because I know something will happen at some point, whether it’s a month from now, 10 years from now, or 20 years from now.”

Johnny told then-host Carrie Bickmore that he had already outlived his life expectancy.

“At some point it will get to me, but I’m still fighting. Still kicking. When I look up my diagnosis and my tumor, the average life expectancy was three years,” he said.

The actor was first diagnosed with brain cancer in 2017 after going to hospital with painful migraines

In August of that year, he had emergency surgery and a 7cm brain tumor was surgically removed from his frontal lobe before undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

The former X Factor star went on to praise his partner Tahnee, calling her his ‘guardian angel’.

“She’s here with every step I take,” he said. “I’m so incredibly grateful to have her by my side, I don’t know what I would do without her.”

Johnny went into remission months after his initial diagnosis in 2017, but revealed in November 2021 that the disease had returned.

In August 2022, Johnny confirmed his brain cancer diagnosis was terminal and said he feared how his girlfriend Tahnee would cope once he is gone.
