Jeremy Clarkson is sharing a difficult update about his health.
The British TV personality—who is best known for hosting the BBC series Top Gear and The Grand Tour—shared he’s been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer during the last two episodes of his series Clarkson Farm.
“I’ve got cancer,” Clarkson told friends Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland in the penultimate episode of season five, which was filmed some time last year. “I had a medical, remember, back in May? I disappeared off the other week and I had a biopsy and it is cancer, and it’s aggressive. But it’s really early.”
He promised his friends, “I’ll be fine,” though he warned he’d be out of commission for a little while to undergo surgery.
In the finale, which was released in a two-episode drop on June 17, Clarkson shared more insight into his diagnosis, noting he’d undergone surgery and they’d removed 10 percent of his prostate which had become “dead” tissue due to the cancer.
