A fourth added: "Memories Memories Memories, Something you will cherish forever, hope you are as well as can be expected."
Last month Jonnie shared a health update after admitting he was in hospital after being admitted earlier this week.
The much-loved TV show host is bravely battling terminal lung cancer which has since spread to his brain after he was diagnosed in 2020.
He said on social media: "In hospital this week monitoring a changeover in my pain management regime."
In the same month he opened up about his daily struggles in a new podcast.
Father-of-three Jonnie said: “I have been close to death's door, twice at least.”
Doctors told him he only had six months to live when they discovered lung cancer in 2020.
He defied those predictions, despite the fatal condition spreading to his brain.
In a new podcast titled OneChat, Jonnie explained: “I am living with cancer rather than dying from cancer.”
