Glasgow comedian, Janey Godley, has confirmed she is receiving end of life care for her terminal ovarian cancer.

The 63-year-old confirmed on X that she was receiving palliative care, and would be going into a hospice for the foreseeable future.

The star recently cancelled her tour after doctors advised that she stop working to focus on her health.

In a video, Janey said: ā€œIt is devastating news, to know that I’m facing end of life but we all come to an end some time.

ā€œI don’t know how long I’ve got left before anybody asks, I’m not a tick tock, I just want you all to know that I appreciate all the love you’ve given me.

ā€œCancer affects one in two people and it’s affected me.ā€
