'Young and the Restless' star Eric Braeden reveals he is cancer-free - New York Post

Eric Braeden, who has played Victor Newman on the CBS soap opera “The Young and the Restless” for more than 40 years, has revealed that he is cancer-free.

The 82-year-old actor shared news of his diagnosis in April, telling fans that he had been battling prostate issues before undergoing immunotherapy.

Taking to social media Sunday, the German-born star shared the good news with his large following.

“I’m cancer-free. They couldn’t find the damn thing,” he said in a Facebook Live video on Aug. 13. “So thank you for all of your good thoughts. All of your prayers meant a great deal to me.”

“Now, this does not mean that it is all over,” he said, adding that he still has a couple more procedures to undergo.

“My last cystoscopy two days ago — that’s when they thread a camera into your bladder — and I am cancer-free,” he added.

He is also awaiting MRI results to confirm that the cancer hasn’t spread.

“I love life, man. Why wouldn’t I?” he said Sunday. “I’m working on the No. 1 show. It has been No. 1 for 38 years now. Why would I complain? That would be obscene.”

The Emmy-winning performer — who also appeared in “Titanic,” as John Jacob Astor IV, and the 2018 heist thriller “Den of Thieves” — said his cancer battle saw him connect with many people in addition to his friends and loved ones.

“My health is good. I feel good, I really do. I can’t complain,” he added.

In April, Braeden revealed his diagnosis in a video post shared to his social media pages.

“I’m a little under the weather, but not really much. I work out, but reduced, in a reduced way,” he said in a 13-minute Facebook video.

Braeden said a urologist discovered some “high-grade” cancerous cells while examining his bladder.

He added that he had been able to continue acting on “Y&R” while undergoing six weeks of immunotherapy treatments.

“I’m happy to be able to go to work,” he said at the time. “That, I enjoy. It distracts me. I love acting. I love knowing that I entertain people.”

“This bastard ain’t going to get me. I’m going to get it,” he added. “I’ll be in top form again soon.”
