In August 2023 the presenter revealed he has been secretly battling prostate cancer, explaining his absence from BBC One news programme Midlands Today.

Nick told the BBC in a revealing interview: "It was a very grim moment, driving home after that sort of news and ringing people, texting people, my phone went crazy for hours on end.

"And it was a very, very difficult time for me, and indeed for my wife Vicki who was by my side all the time through this, you know."

He added that Vicki had to take on a major role in his recovery after he had his prostate removed.

The former Luton Town chairman said: "She had to do a lot of things medically when I came home, to look after me, including having to give me an injection once a day for about a month - and she's got no experience of that, I've certainly got no experience of doing [it] myself or having it done by a non medical professional."
