Deb Knight reveals skin cancer diagnosis on 2GB program

2GB’s Afternoons host Deb Knight has used her radio program to reveal she has skin cancer.

She made the revelation this week and encouraged her listeners to make sure they regularly get their skin checked.

Knight’s skin cancer is on her nose and is a small basal cell carcinoma.

She said it’s “not the best news” and that she will have to go under the knife, however she did note it’s not spreading and therefore not urgent.

“Get your skin checked, because we can’t afford not to in Australia,” she said on yesterday’s program. We are the skin cancer capital of the world.”
