Former US President Joe Biden's prostate cancer has metastasised into his bones and other parts of his body.

The 83-year-old's condition is described as highly debilitating, significantly impacting his quality of life.

Mr Biden revealed his aggressive form of prostate cancer in May 2025 and began radiation treatment and hormone therapy in October.

His advanced age and health concerns contributed to his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, ultimately leading to Donald Trump's return to office.
