Kirsty Gallacher has given an update on her brain tumour that left her almost deaf in one ear. The television presenter, who was diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma in 2021, underwent radiotherapy to attempt to shrink the inoperable tumour located in her right ear canal. During an appearance on Channel 5’s Vanessa, Gallagher shared that she is scheduled to undergo an MRI to determine whether the radiotherapy was successful. "The success rate's very good, it's not going to get rid of it. It's whether it shrinks it and sort of kills the DNA that keeps making it grow,” said Gallagher, admitting that she is now very hard of hearing.

The presenter, 50, appeared on the Vanessa show on Wednesday where she gave an update on her benign brain tumour.
