Good Morning Britain presenters Ranvir Singh and Tom Swarbrick paid an emotional tribute to lung cancer campaigner Jules Fielder on Monday's programme, following her death at the age of 42.
Jules, from Hastings in East Sussex, was diagnosed with stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer in 2021 at the age of 38, despite never having smoked or vaped. Her symptoms were initially dismissed. The cancer later mutated to small cell lung cancer in 2025.
She dedicated her remaining years to raising awareness of lung cancer symptoms through her Instagram account, just_beingjules, which had 67,900 followers. Her campaigning led to a successful initiative displaying lung cancer symptoms in Boots pharmacies across the UK, and she received recognition from the Prime Minister and a letter from King Charles.
During the programme, Singh said: 'I'm afraid to say Jules has sadly died aged at just 42-years-old.' Swarbrick added: 'Amazing woman, an amazing campaign.' They later interviewed Jules's friend and MP, Helena Dollimore, who described her as 'a force of nature' and said: 'The sky was the limit with Jules.'
The news of her death was announced on her Instagram account on Friday with a post reading: 'One Bad A** Bougie B****' accompanied by dove and white heart emojis. Tributes poured in from followers, with one writing: 'You changed the world Jules' and another saying: 'May you rest in peace beautiful. Put your sparkles on and shine down on us.'
