Bryant Gumbel Reveals He's Battling Lung Cancer


Sportscaster Bryant Gumbel is being treated for lung cancer, he revealed Tuesday.
The former "Today" show anchor disclosed the news is "Live! With Regis & Kelly" Tuesday morning, saying he had surgery last month to remove a malignant tumor from his chest.
Gümbel, 61, was subbing for Regis Philbin when co-host Kelly Ripa asked him to dance. They begged off with the dramatic excuse, saying part of his lung was removed last month, and they will be seeing his surgeon next week.
"We had told a few people, my family told me, obviously. I even kept it from my staff at Real Sports." So I'm okay for the time being, "he said. "I'm hoping they green light we are to play golf again."
