Bee Gees star Robin Gibb has fallen into a coma and is fighting for his life.

It is only a couple of weeks since the 62-year-old star confirmed that his colon and liver cancer had gone into remission, however, it is now believed that Gibb has now been diagnosed with a secondary tumour.

He has also developed pneumonia, according to The Sun.

A source told the publication, "Our prayers are with Robin. He has kept so positive and always believed he could beat this. Sadly, it looks like he has developed pneumonia, which is very bad in his situation."

"If there is anyone you would put money on pulling through such a dire situation, it would be Robin because he is a fighter. But this is a battle he will struggle to win."

Gibb's wife Dwina, brother Barry, daughter Melissa, and sons Spencer and Robin-John are keeping a vigil at his bedside in a private hospital in London.
