During the Inside My Head documentary, Tom – who was diagnosed with brain cancer last year – broke down in tears as he spoke frankly about his terminal brain tumour.
The singer also revealed he has suffered from short-term memory loss, spent nearly three months in bed solidly, and looked at his cancer treatment plan.

Growing emotional as he spoke about his prognosis, Tom said: ‘It’s so hard to think about the future, I don’t want to know.
‘I don’t think you know how you feel about death until you’re faced with it. Am I going to die? That’s the most important question… I want to stick around – and be the best version I can!’
The documentary also saw Tom reunite with The Wanted for a Stand Up To Cancer performance.
Yet it was touch and go as to whether he’d be able to perform with his bandmates Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness and Nathan Sykes due to his condition.

Tom was diagnosed with glioblastoma last year, which is inoperable, and has undergone radiotherapy.
In the show, he learnt that the tumour had shrunk – but was left unsure of what the future holds for him.
‘I don’t want people to treat me different just because I’ve got something, I think that was always on my mind,’ he said.
He continued: ‘I do feel like I’m in a much stronger place, but it’s so hard to think about the future. Do you know what I mean? I genuinely don’t know what it holds anymore.’
