Rod Stewart Reveals He Had Prostate Cancer But Is Now in Remission: 'I'm in the Clear'
Iconic singer Rod Stewart has revealed that he has beaten prostate cancer after being diagnosed with the disease and fighting it over a two-year period.
Stewart, 74, was reportedly diagnosed with prostate cancer in February 2016, during a routine check-up.
The singer — who was knighted for his services to music and charity in 2016 — revealed the news at a special Prostate Project fundraiser alongside former Faces bandmates Ronnie Wood and Kenny Jones.
“Two years ago I was diagnosed with prostate cancer,” Stewart told the crowd of 500 at the Wentworth Club in Surrey, England over the weekend, according to the Daily Mirror.
He continued, “No one knows this, but I thought this was about time I told everybody. I’m in the clear, now, simply because I caught it early. I have so many tests.”
