Newsreader Dermot Murnaghan today revealed he has been diagnosed with 'advanced' stage four prostate cancer.
The former Sky News and BBC broadcaster has said he is 'feeling well' despite the devastating news.
'I’m blessed to be fortified by the monumental love and support of my wife, family and close friends', he said today.
Stage four is the most advanced stage of cancer, meaning cancerous cells have spread beyond the prostate and into other areas of the body. In these cases it is generally not curable, but it can treatable.
The 67-year-old, who has been married to his wife Maria for almost 36 years and has four children, revealed his diagnosis on Twitter this afternoon.
