Milton Jones reveals prostate cancer diagnosis
Summer tour dates cancelled
Milton Jones has revealed that he has prostate cancer.
The 60-year-old comedian has cancelled some of his tour dates on his current Ha!Milton tour this summer while he undergoes surgery.
He announced the cancellations on Instagram, saying: ‘This difficult decision comes following a recent diagnosis of treatable prostate cancer. I'll be undergoing surgery soon and will need time afterwards to fully recover.
He concluded: 'Thanks for your support and respecting my privacy during this time. This decision has not been taken lightly. Trust me. Abnormal service will resume as soon as possible and I'm looking forward to being back out on the road again soon - though probably not on a bike! Milton x'
His statement attracted comments from the likes of Al Murray, Richard Herring, Markus Birdman and even cycling star Sir Chris Hoy, all wishing him well.
