Stanley Tucci forced to use a feeding tube for six months in harrowing cancer fight

Stanley Tucci has opened up about having been diagnosed with cancer around five years ago and recalled the impact of the subsequent treatment that he underwent.

The actor, 62 - who's known for projects like the Hunger Games film series - is understood to have been diagnosed with oral cancer at the base of his tongue in around 2018.

The diagnosis came less than a decade after the death of his first wife Kate Spath-Tucci, who died aged 47 back in 2009 after having been diagnosed with breast cancer.
