“I love him to death:” Inside the unbreakable bond between Home And Away besties Johnny Ruffo and Lynne McGranger

Lynne has been by Johnny’s side through the highs and lows of his brain cancer battle.

In 2013, a baby-faced Johnny Ruffo landed a role on Home And Away and quickly hit it off with his co-star Lynne McGranger.

He had no idea at the time that the actress who plays Irene Roberts on the serial would play such a significant role in his life.

When Johnny was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2017, his world was turned upside down. The disease was declared to be in remission in 2019, but it tragically reappeared in November 2020.

“It is with a sad heart that I have to let you know that after an unexpected week of seizures and severe headaches, I now have another enormous struggle ahead of me as my brain cancer has returned,” Johnny said on Instagram besides a photo of himself and fiancée Tahnee Sims.

He continued: “Though I will dig deep and beat this sht disease again #fckcancer.

“Johnny has famously received immense support from his former Home And Away cast members, the public and his dedicated girlfriend, Tahnee.

However, out of everyone on the programme, Lynne has actively committed significant time to Johnny, and as a result, they have remained good friends since he left.

They first became friends on the show because of their shared passion of the Australian Football League, and they had a ritual where whoever’s club finished worst in the table each season owed the other one supper.

In 2020, Johnny revealed Lynne still plays an important part in his life.

“I still see Lynne McGranger every other week,” the actor told Now To Love.

While Lynne described Johnny as the “son she never had” in Channel Seven’s News Spotlight: Fight Of His Life special about Johnny’s health battle.

Despite the physical and mental stress he is under, Johnny has maintained a positive attitude throughout these trying times.
Lynne’s kind and unwavering support has undoubtedly contributed to his capacity to persevere.

“A lovely Sunday lunch and lots of laughs” Lynne captioned this photo of her reunion with Johnny in May 2022.

Lynne and Johnny met together with each other and their partners in a Sydney restaurant in February 2021.

The couple documented their lovely mate date on social media, including photos from their outing.

“Always a pleasure catching up with this beautiful lady ??,” Johnny shared.

On Lynne’s Instagram she captioned the sweet moment, “Lunch with these Muppets. @mcsquirta @johnny_ruffo Missed you @tahneesims ??.” Instagram

When Johnny announced his second cancer diagnosis, Lynne wrote this supportive message at the time: “Sending love always my dear friend. ???????Wishing you both a relaxing Christmas and let me know when you’re feeling up to a catch up – we’re not going anywhere ??.” Instagram
