RA mainly attacks the joints, usually many joints at once, and is a long-term condition that causes pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints. In a lengthy message on Instagram told how he had been in "a lot of pain" since the start of the year and symptoms started with his knees before moving to his wrists, fingers and now ankles and toes. He said his diagnosis came after several blood tests and visits to doctors and hospitals.
Adam has also received an outpouring of support, none more so than his famous brothers and his wife. Adam's older brother is former Corrie star Ryan, who played Jason Grimshaw in the ITV soap, while his twin, Scott, previously appeared on Love Island and is now running multiple businesses including a PR company in Manchester.
