Seasoned radio jock Mark Pilgrim is home after spending over two months in hospital and is making the most of his time with his family.
Pilgrim was admitted into hospital in October after undergoing a procedure for a collapsed lung he suffered in September.
After spending 64 days in hospital, seven procedures and losing almost 15kg, he was discharged.
It seems the good news did not end there, as the Hot 102.7 radio presenter ushered in the New Year by popping the big question to his partner Adrienne Watkins, who has been by his side throughout his cancer battle.
The media personality has been openly sharing his journey with the public and in a few of his posts has mentioned his partner.
Pilgrim shared a picture of himself sitting in his wheelchair with his ring in his hand in front of a smiling Watkins on his social media pages.
“I love you my Adrienne… 😀🥂💍❤️” he captioned the picture.
His Facebook post was filled with messages of congratulations for the happy couple.
