James Van Der Beek shares poignant photos and details how he’s been coping during secret cancer battle
As a long-time admirer of James Van Der Beek‘s talent and resilience, it is heartbreaking to hear about his recent diagnosis with colorectal cancer. However, I am deeply inspired by the way he has faced this challenge head-on, maintaining a positive outlook and sharing his journey honestly with the world.
On a Sunday afternoon, actor James Van Der Beek publicly discussed his recent cancer diagnosis via social media.
The 47-year-old actor took to Instagram to share the news with his 1.5 million followers.
In his post, he didn’t specify the exact type of cancer he was diagnosed with. However, he did share with People magazine that it was colorectal cancer.
He shared that each year, about 2 billion individuals worldwide learn they have cancer, and regrettably, he is among those diagnosed.
He didn’t have a set plan for discussing this matter, but he intended to delve deeply into the topic in an upcoming conversation with People magazine. His aim was to bring attention to it and share his personal experiences at his own pace.
However, I needed to adjust my initial plan this morning as I learned that a tabloid was planning to break the story. The actor explained further.
He’s handled this matter personally up until now, seeking care and devoting more attention to his well-being than ever before, as he explained further.
He firmly stated that he’s doing well and has a solid sense of strength. He’s been through quite an ordeal, and he’ll share more about it when he feels comfortable.
I’m truly sorry to everyone I intended to share my plans with, as things haven’t unfolded according to my desired pace or schedule, I’ve found.
However, we adapt and learn from the unexpected twists, considering them as guiding signals that lead us to a more profound fate than we could uncover on our own,” he explained.
He expressed gratitude for all the love and support he and his family have received, assuring there’s more to come.
The actor has been scheduled to join several other famous personalities in a two-hour program titled The Real Full Monty on Fox. This show aims to raise awareness about prostate, testicular, and colorectal cancer by having celebrities remove their clothing.
Taye Diggs, Chris Jones from the Kansas City Chiefs’ defensive line, and Bruno Tonioli, a judge on Dancing With the Stars, are set to join him.
Despite the uncertainty about when he was initially diagnosed with colorectal cancer, it hasn’t impeded his progress in his professional life.
He most recently appeared in an episode of The CW’s Walker and he’ll next be seen in the Tubi film Sidelined: The QB and Me, debuting November 29.
Since 2021, those projects marked his return to work, as he lent his voice to Boris in the Disney animated series Vampirina.
On their sprawling 36-acre Texas ranch, the Van Der Beek family recently marked Halloween with their six kids – eldest daughter Olivia (14), middle child Joshua (12), followed by Annabel (10), Emilia (8), youngest daughter Gwendolyn (6), and toddler son Jeremiah (3).
Earlier on Sunday, the Connecticut-born blond confirmed to People: ‘I have colorectal cancer. I’ve been privately dealing with this diagnosis and have been taking steps to resolve it, with the support of my incredible family. There’s reason for optimism, and I’m feeling good.’
It appears that James’ specific stage of colorectal cancer isn’t known, but on average, approximately one out of every 23 men at age 65 develops this type of cancer, which originates either in the colon or rectum. About 65% of these individuals are reported to survive beyond five years after diagnosis.
