Hairy Bikers fans are loving Dave Myers’ ‘new look’ amid cancer battle

Hairy Bikers fans have been left thrilled after seeing a new photo of Dave Myers. The 65-year-old TV chef, who hosts a slew of BBC shows, posed in a glamorous tuxedo in a photo posted to Instagram on Tuesday, March 28.

Last May, Dave shared the devastating news that he had been diagnosed with cancer. Since then, he has been undergoing chemotherapy, which he admits has left him unable to walk.

Dave captioned the photo: “Sunday was a posh night out on the town for the Myers family! Have a great week everybody! Love Dave.” Upon posting the picture, he was met with a barrage of supportive comments.

One person wrote: “Looking well, and damn fine, Mr M,” congratulating Dave on his progress. A second then echoed: “Looking fabulous Dave.”

A third added: “You’re looking great Dave - so good to see.” A fourth said: “Wow, that's a great look for you!”

Another person shared: “Wow you look great and so handsome.” And a further person wrote: “You throwing you hat in the ring for the role of James Bond Dave.”

Dave first announced that he had cancer on his and Si King’s podcast, The Hairy Bikers: Agony Uncles. He said at the time: "I've got to come clean now, I haven't been too well recently and, basically, I've got to have some chemo, you know all this anyway, so this year is going to be a bit quiet for me, I'm not going to be filming, some of the festivals I'm not going to be able to go to, some may be OK but this year's a bit of a write-off for us.

"I have had to speak up about this because I don't want to hide under a rock, but I would love it if people respect my privacy and just let me get on with it and give Si and our team all the support they need, that would be great. But look, the prognosis is OK, I'm going to be fine. I may be a baldy biker for a while so it's just a warning, I don't want to make a fuss about it, I look alright bald actually."
