Jonnie Irwin was flooded with support on Monday when he shared details about a home renovation setback.<\/p>\n
The A Place In The Sun star, 49, wowed fans earlier this month when he revealed he\u2019s tackling a major renovation amid his devastating terminal cancer diagnosis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n But frustratingly, dad-of-three Jonnie shared this week that progress on the renovation had been stalled slightly.<\/p>\n Posting a lengthy video update, he explained that the home he shares with his wife Jessica Holmes and their three young sons was looking like \u2018a right tip\u2019 and that they were losing out on \u2018crucial light\u2019 because of having to build their new porch \u2018ten centimetres deeper\u2019.<\/p>\n Jonnie, whose fans rushed to the comment section to offer him support, said in full: \u2018Hello all, welcome to another day in paradise. Sun\u2019s out but unfortunately, it\u2019s a Sunday so the workmen aren\u2019t here.<\/p>\n \u2018Progress so far? Well, you gotta get down to get up. It\u2019s gotta get messy to get better.\u2019<\/p>\n To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a webbrowser thatsupports HTML5video<\/p>\n The TV star went on: \u2018We are here. No windows. One blocked up window. One ripped-off cladding. And I dunno what that window\u2019s still doing there but that should be cut out.<\/p>\n \u2018Hopefully the next job. But you might have noticed this rectangular red monstrosity. That\u2019s the frame for the portico.\u2019<\/p>\n He added: \u2018Unfortunately because we have to go ten centimetres deeper, that\u2019s a critical amount of light we\u2019re blocking out.<\/p>\n \u2018That\u2019s going to be solid wood in front of a glazed front door. That hallway has little natural light.<\/p>\n \u2018I\u2019ve got to put a skylight here [gestures] or into the flat roof next door. I think the latter option is preferable but more expensive.\u2019<\/p>\n Jonnie concluded: \u2018And obviously putting a skylight in is a lot more expensive. It\u2019s all down to that drain down there.<\/p>\n \u2018The joys of refurbishment I suppose. It\u2019s all looking a right tip at the moment, hopefully we\u2019ll make some progress soon.\u2019<\/p>\n He captioned his video: \u2018As James Brown once said \u201cyou\u2019ve to get up to get down\u201d but the builders have spent the past couple of weeks taking things down to enable us to improve the facade.<\/p>\n \u2018Running into problems is par for the course \u2013 finding solutions is the challenge. I\u2019ve since found out that the flat roof I want to put a lantern in is made out of bloody concrete!<\/p>\n \u2018Bit of head scratching tonight and find a way forward tomorrow.\u2019<\/p>\n Beneath his post, one fan said: \u2018You are such an inspiration Jonnie, I\u2019m sure you will come to a fantastic conclusion and it will look fabulous. Love to you all.\u2019<\/p>\n Another echoed: \u2018You\u2019re a resourceful man Jonnie you\u2019ll find a way.\u2019<\/p>\n Other comments included: \u2018Problems always easier to solve after a night\u2019s sleep. Hope it comes together OK\u2019 and \u2018Looking great Jonnie, you\u2019ll come up with a solution for sure.\u2019<\/p>\n Got a story?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
