Next month, James Van Der Beek is taking it all off on Fox’s The Real Full Month to bring awareness to prostate, testicular, and colorectal cancer testing and research.
Today, he announced that he was battling cancer. “I have colorectal cancer. I’ve been privately dealing with this diagnosis and have been taking steps to resolve it, with the support of my incredible family,” he told People. “There’s reason for optimism, and I’m feeling good.”
The actor did not elaborate on when he was diagnosed, nor what stage he was diagnosed with. Hopefully, it was early, and he will beat it.
Van Der Beek’s wife Kimberly and their six kids, Olivia, Joshua, Annabel, Emilia, Gwendolyn, and Jeremiah, are supporting him.
