Despite his illness, Paul has remained positive.
Last year, he joked that his Parkinson’s was getting in the way of him enjoying sex.
He tweeted: “Having Parkinson’s is like living in the UAE.
“The sheikhs control your life, gay sex is out of the question, and there are a hell of a lot of parking spots.”
Meanwhile, Paul was recently supported by his Beat the Chasers and The Chase co-star Mark Labbett – aka The Beast.
Ahead of the first episode of Beat the Chasers airing this week, Paul reminded viewers on Twitter that “mistakes happen”.
