Just when the family thought that things could not get any worse, Nicola went into labor and was taken to Luton hospital while Brett had a seizure and was taken to a hospital across London in Milton Keynes. As soon as she could get there, Nicola rushed to be by her husband's bedside with their brand new daughter, Arya.

Sweet Arya was born at 5:07 am and her father passed on at 8:25 am. Nicola said that when she arrived at the hospital to see Brett, she simply laid the baby on her daddy's chest and told him that he could let go now.

This sad story left viewers of Gogglebox heartbroken. The ugly disease of cancer knows no limits to the destruction that it can cause.
