First Dates' Merlin Griffiths gives health update days after cancer surgery
First Dates star Merlin Griffiths appears to have been discharged from hospital just days after going under the knife. Merlin, 46, was tragically diagnosed with bowel cancer last year, but refused to let the illness get the better of him. Over the weekend the father-of-one shared a snap from his hospital bed where he said that while he had some “aches and pains”, he was officially tumour-free.
