Joe Biden Diagnosed With Aggressive Prostate Cancer

Washington, D.C. – May 18, 2025 – Former U.S. President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, his office confirmed today. The diagnosis follows a routine medical examination last week, which revealed a prostate nodule requiring further evaluation.

According to Biden’s medical team, the cancer has metastasized to the bone, making it a more severe case. However, doctors have noted that the disease appears to be hormone-sensitive, which allows for effective management and treatment options. Biden and his family are currently reviewing possible treatment plans with his physicians.

The news has sparked an outpouring of support from political leaders and the public. President Donald Trump extended his well wishes, stating that he hopes Biden receives the best possible care. Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other global figures have sent messages of encouragement.

Biden, who previously underwent treatment for skin cancer in 2023, addressed the nation briefly, expressing gratitude for the support and optimism about his treatment. “Jill and I appreciate the kindness and prayers. I’m working with my doctors to fight this,” he said.

As Biden’s medical team continues to assess treatment options, the world watches closely, hoping for a positive outcome in his battle against cancer.
