"Well the blood tests and scans today show my liver function is heading in the right direction. "There’s bigger issues we will have to confront in a couple of weeks but for now I’m allowed home.

I’m taking the small win for now. Rex tried to stay up to welcome me home but couldn’t quite stay awake bless him, although Reggie and Ronnie were wide awake so I got to them a story. "Big big thanks to all the doctors and nurses who looked after me I’m so grateful to be home." Fans, friends and family rallied around to show their love and support with A Place in the Sun co-host Ben Hillman first in Jonnie's comments, who said: "Good on you Jonnie boy, hope you have a fun filled sun filled time with the fam," followed by a loveheart emoji.
