00:05Fresh concern is growing over the health of former U.S. President Joe Biden.
00:10In an emotional interview, his son, Hunter Biden, has revealed that the former president's cancer has spread further and that
00:18he is now enduring intense pain.
00:20The remarks have brought renewed attention to Biden's battle with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, raising questions about his
00:29condition as he continues treatment away from public office.
00:33Speaking to the BBC's Newsnight, Hunter Biden said his father's illness has become increasingly severe.
00:40According to Hunter, the cancer has metastasized beyond the bones and is causing significant pain.
00:47He described the disease as very painful and very debilitating, saying it has greatly affected the former president's daily life.
00:55A spokesperson for Joe Biden declined to comment on Hunter's latest remarks.
01:01The former president first revealed his diagnosis in May 2025, just months after leaving the White House.
01:08At the time, Biden disclosed that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had already
01:15spread to his bones.
01:17His office said the disease was hormone-sensitive, meaning it was expected to respond to hormone-based treatment, despite being
01:24classified as advanced stage cancer.
01:27Later updates confirmed that Biden had begun a treatment plan combining radiation therapy with hormone therapy.
01:34Medical experts note that metastatic prostate cancer represents stage four, the most advanced stage of the disease.
01:42Despite his diagnosis, Biden has made several public appearances over recent months.
01:48He attended the dedication ceremony for former President Obama's Presidential Library in Chicago, where he joined long-time political allies.
01:56Biden also continues work on his presidential memoir, which is scheduled for publication later this year.
02:04Health concerns surrounding Joe Biden were a recurring political issue throughout his presidency.
02:10Questions about his physical condition and age intensified during the 2024 election campaign, culminating in his decision to withdraw from
02:19the presidential race after a widely criticized debate performance.
02:23Since leaving office, public updates on his health have remained limited, with his family occasionally providing insight into his treatment
02:32and recovery.
02:33Hunter Biden's latest comments have once again placed the former president's health at the center of national attention.
02:40As Joe Biden continues treatment for advanced prostate cancer, supporters across the political spectrum continue to watch closely for updates
02:49on his condition.
02:50While his family says the illness remains painful and physically demanding, doctors continue managing the disease through ongoing therapy.
02:59Further official updates are expected as the former president continues his treatment.
