Christine McGuinness added: ‘Sending all my love, my heart breaks for you Sally. Your John was a true gent, such a lovely man. Prayers and thoughts with you and your family.’
Sally, 70, had been on tour around the UK, after her husband gave her the go-ahead despite his illness.
She shared on social media on September 17: ‘As you may have noticed my wonderful husband John has been absent from social media recently. Many of you have been asking if he is ok, so I wanted to be transparent and give you an update.
‘He has been rather unwell of late and is currently in hospital. He is receiving the best care from our wonderful NHS and I would like to personally thank everyone at East Surrey Hospital for their continued hard work, love and support. I feel truly blessed that John is in such great hands.
‘After much consideration and at John’s request, my tour will be going ahead and continuing as normal.’
Later, she said she had been unable to see her husband for three weeks, and said the family would ‘feel so lucky’ if he made it home for Christmas.
Weeks earlier, the couple had enjoyed a trip to Spain, and Sally praised John in numerous Instagram posts, writing: ‘Such a gorgeous evening with his lordship. 46 years and he still makes me smile.’
On another photo, Sally wrote in the caption: ‘I still love him the same today as the day I married him.’
John previously worked as his wife’s manager until 2014.
He is survived by Sally and their children Rebecca and Fern.
