Model Nadia Forde has dramatically reconciled with her estranged mum – after discovering she is terminally ill.
The Dublin singer has been living with his grandparents since she was just seven after her parents split.
The FHM beauty did unsuccessfully try to patch up their differences throughout the last year – after a near-death car crash nearly killed her.
However Nadia has now patched up their relationship overnight after shockingly discovering her mum – who is in her 40s – had Lymphoma cancer.

The Sunday Independent reports the 25-year-old got a dramatic phonecall from her mother, and jumped on the last flight to London and has been by her hospital bedside since.
A friend said: “Just being there has made all the difference. When you are faced with death, everything else melts away.
“The past is not important any more. It doesn’t even need to be spoken about. Being together is all that matters now.
“Nadia has been processing everything that is happening. Just being able to be with her mom and hold her hand has made everything okay. She hasn’t left her side.

“Her mom is able to talk to her sometimes and Nadia has been helping nurses to care for her.
“There is only one thing that is certain in life — death faces us all in the end, and when that comes all of the other worries and difficulties are not important anymore.
“It put everything into perspective for her, just how fragile and how precious life is.”
In her TV3 reality show, Nadia told of why she wasn’t on good terms with her mum.
