Kit knew he needed to give Marlon some space but later explained that he was only pushing Marlon to help with his recovery.

Talking to This Morning, Marlon actor Mark admitted he was concerned over the response to the story.

He said: "I was really nervous about the reaction because as we keep saying in all the interviews, no strokes are the same. So I was worried about the online response, but it's been remarkable actually.

"Even if Marlon's stroke wasn't like the stroke they had witnessed or experienced themselves, they've empathised with it."

He continued: "What has been the most amazing aspect of it, for me, it seems to have raised awareness to the point a sub community has gathered online, sharing their stories of stroke with each other. That's heartening."
