Radio and former Celebrity Big Brother star James Whale says he is nearing the end of his terminal cancer battle after stopping treatment. The 72-year-old says he has just months to live.
He said: “I’m kind of at the end, the end of my treatment.” He added: “When I lose a lot more weight when I get really ill, I’ll look fantastic. I’ve just come off all the steroids I was on, which made me look like a bloody balloon. I’m feeling better from that.”
The TalkRADIO host was diagnosed with kidney cancer in 2000. It resurfaced in 2020 and spread to his brain, spine and lungs.
James added: “Some days I might feel sorry for myself. I feel sorry for my wife really. It’s more difficult for her.”
