Chris Evans has revealed that he has been diagnosed with skin cancer, reports Sky.
Announcing the news on his Virgin radio show, he said he was detected at an early stage, adding that he had been told it was treatable.
He said: “We need to discuss what’s going on with this issue. It is a melanoma. There’s this phrase called a malignant melanoma – you know once you get something, and you find out all about it – that is a redundant phrase because if it is a melanoma it is malignant. But it’s been caught so early, just so you know, that it should be completely treatable,” reports Sky.
It comes after becoming concerned about skin cancer in 2019 after high levels of UV radiation during the summer heat prompted her to see a doctor.
However, Evans was told there was “nothing to worry about” and he should be screened for the disease once a year.
The broadcaster shared similar concerns in 2015 when he was tested for prostate cancer after developing certain symptoms.
