'Didn't tell him' Patrick Swayze's widow Lisa admitted heartbreaking regret after he died

“And I'm just going to have to go on until then."I thought during the 22 months of my husband’s illness that it gave me all this time to get used to the idea of losing him," she said.

The pair had been married for 34 years until the day he died of cancer 13 years ago. Patrick became an overnight celebrity after the success of Dirty Dancing, having a further 20 years to enjoy his fame before dying of pancreatic cancer.

The star would have turned 70 today, and his 1991 action thriller Point Break airs tomorrow night on BBC One at 10:40pm. But he wasn’t solely famous as a Hollywood A-lister; he also went on to star on Broadway due to his talent as a singer and dancer.

He was sadly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer after frequently suffering from stomach pain. Patrick immediately began treatment with chemotherapy and surgery.
