David Brooks cried tears of joy after being told he is to become a dad — something the Wales forward feared might not happen following his 2021 cancer diagnosis.
The Bournemouth winger's wife Flora revealed last weekend she is pregnant, with the pair expecting their first baby in November.
It is the news the couple thought would never come. Brooks was diagnosed with stage-two Hodgkin lymphoma nearly four years ago and, although he announced he was cancer-free in May 2022, the long-term effects of the disease in terms of fathering children were unclear.
