George Best’s ex-wife Angie has received a diagnosis of colon cancer. Their son, TV personality Calum Best, shared the news in a heartfelt video on Instagram. Calum revealed that Angie, aged 73, was recently diagnosed with cancer that has also affected her liver. He emphasized the importance of honesty in dealing with health issues and expressed gratitude for any support. To assist with Angie’s specialized treatment and care, Calum launched a GoFundMe page. He acknowledged the emotional challenge and the necessity of financial assistance during this difficult time.
Calum assured followers of regular updates and encouraged contributions to the fundraising campaign. Angie, via her son’s Instagram account, conveyed her determination to fight the illness and outlined the various treatments she is considering. The funds raised will cover medical expenses as well as living and travel costs. Angie and George Best met in Los Angeles in 1975, eventually marrying and having their son Calum. Despite their divorce in 1986, the family remains united in facing Angie’s health battle.
