Cameron reveals recent prostate cancer diagnosis
November 24, 2025
|The Independent
David Cameron has disclosed that he was diagnosed with cancer as he called upon the government to introduce targeted screening.
The former prime minister, 59, said that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer, after being encouraged to get tested by his wife, Samantha.
Lord Cameron told The Times that he wanted to add his name to the long list of people calling for a targeted screening programme.

Following his diagnosis, he said he wanted to support a call by the charity Prostate Cancer Research for screening to be offered to men deemed at high risk.
Lord Cameron said he was diagnosed with cancer after taking a prostate specific antigen (PSA) test, looking for key proteins linked to the cancer. A biopsy confirmed the diagnosis.
"You always dread hearing those words," he told
