A video of Joe Biden revealing he was a cancer patient three years ago has resurfaced online following his recent diagnosis.
The former President, 82, has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, according to a statement from his office that notes the disease has already spread to his bones. It’s understood that the discovery was made this past Friday after he presented urinary symptoms.
Biden, who left office as the oldest-serving President in American history, fielded many questions about his health during his presidency and ultimately chose to drop out of the running for re-election last year.
His office revealed that his cancer is “a more aggressive form,” though it allows for effective management.
“On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterised by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said in part.
A Gleason score of nine means the cancer could spread quickly. And that it was only recently discovered has led to questions.
Interestingly enough, the former POTUS did say he had cancer back in July of 2022. Biden was speaking in Somerset, Massachusetts, when he blamed oil pollution in Delaware for giving him and many others the disease.

“That’s why I—and so damn many other people I grew up with—have cancer,” he remarked then.

The White House Clarified Joe Biden’s Comments After His Speech
The White House said at the time that Biden was referring to skin cancers he had successfully treated before taking office and was not a cancer patient. Of course, given this latest development, some people are wondering whether the previous administration had been covering this up all along.
Still, others insist Joe Biden’s old statement had nothing to do with prostate cancer.
Meanwhile, current President Donald Trump has taken to Truth Social to express sadness over the Diagnosis.
“We extend our warmest and best wishes to Jill and the family,” he wrote, “We wish Joe a fast and successful recovery.”
