Dave Coulier’s Tongue Cancer Is In Remission 4 Months After Diagnosis
Dave Coulier’s tongue cancer is officially in remission, two months after going public with his diagnosis.
“It’s been a roller-coaster ride for sure,” Coulier, 66, said during a Wednesday, February 4, appearance on Good Morning America. “I’m in remission with both cancers. And what a journey this has been.”
The Full House alum announced in December 2025 that doctors had diagnosed him with HPV-related oropharyngeal tongue cancer that October. The illness was “totally unrelated” to his previous battle with stage III non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
“To go through chemotherapy and feel that relief of, ‘Whoa, it’s gone.’ And then to get a test that says, ‘Well now you’ve got another kind of cancer,’” said on the Today show in December 2025. “It is a shock to the system.”
Full House alum Dave Coulier has been diagnosed with a new type of cancer months after beating lymphoma. “To go through chemotherapy and feel that relief of, ‘Whoa, it’s gone.’ And then to get a test that says, ‘Well now you’ve got another kind of cancer,’” the 66-year-old actor said during a Tuesday, December 2 […]
Coulier announced his non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis in November 2024. He was cancer free by March 2025, after several rounds of chemotherapy.
“It was a really tough year, chemotherapy was grueling,” Coulier told Today late last year. “A couple of months ago, I had a PET scan, and something flared on the scan. The doctor said, ‘We don’t know what it is, but there’s something at the base of your tongue.’”
Coulier explained that it was a “very painful” experience.
“It’s like if you bit your tongue, but the pain just lasted every single day,” the actor shared during his Today interview.
Oropharyngeal tongue cancer is considered rare, with the American Cancer Society estimating that it only impacts 53,000 people a year. The illness “forms in your oropharynx, the middle section of your throat,” according to an article by the Cleveland Clinic. While it is treatable, it “can come back,” the same article claimed. Coulier’s specific type of tongue cancer impacted the P16 protein, a marker for human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection that can turn into cancer if untreated.
In December 2025, Coulier revealed that he planned to undergo 35 radiation treatments. The “prognosis is good,” his medical team said at the time.
David Livingston/Getty Images Since going public with stage III non-Hodgkin lymphoma in November 2024, Dave Coulier has been candid about his illness, treatment and prognosis before his second diagnosis. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the patient’s lymphatic system, with “white blood cells called lymphocytes [that] grow abnormally and can form growths […]
“It’s a whole different animal than chemo,” he explained. “It doesn’t feel as aggressive, but there are still side effects.”
Coulier has stayed in high spirits during his overall cancer battle. However, the actor has spoken candidly about the toll it’s taken on his mental health.
“It’s emotional. It’s psychologically draining,” Coulier told Today, explaining that it has also impacted his wife, Melissa Bring. “I’m going to get on the other side of this. The silver lining here is that I had cancer, which helped me detect my other cancer. It seems crazy to be making that statement, but it’s true.”
Bring, who has been married to Coulier since 2014, also addressed her husband’s lengthy cancer journey in a January 2025 interview.
“He has some really tough days, and as the chemo has been accumulating it gets a little tougher and more difficult,” she said at the time. “He has such a positive attitude, and you need that in order to really fight it.
Bring recalled, “Every morning, if he’s feeling up for it, we try to put on a song and do a little dance party with the dogs, because when you do feel good, you have to celebrate that too.”

Prized Electric Guitar Goes Up For Auction …
Anyone Got a Spare Mil?!
Published
When you think of legendary rock guitarists, Eddie Van Halen immediately pops into your mind … and so do his equally famous Kramer Guitars — and one of them can now be all yours … but only if you have some very deep pockets!
That’s right … the late music virtuoso’s striped 1985 Kramer studio guitar is hitting the auction block on GottaHaveRockAndRoll.com starting today, through March 13.
And the piece of guitar history is expected to fetch between $1,000,000 and $1,500,000, with a starting bid of $700,000.
By the way, there’s a whole story behind this Van Halen guitar … Eddie presented his prized possession to a gentleman named Michael Gutierrez, who entered a 1985 contest during the NAMM guitar show.
The contest was titled, “One lucky winner will win one of Eddie Van Halen’s personally owned Kramer Guitars.”
More than 100,000 people signed up for it, and, guess what … Gutierrez was the lucky winner! And get this … he’s also the consignor in the auction, meaning he will deliver the guitar right to the highest bidder.

Lamothe told TMZ she began seeing signs as far back as January when Carradine went “radio silent,” sparking great concerns from producers. No one knew about his whereabouts.

The family of former New York Rangers legend Ron Duguay have launched a GoFundMe to raise funds amid the ice hockey player’s battle with cancer.
Created on Tuesday, February 24, by Duguay’s two daughters, Shay Thomas and Amber Stavros, whom he shares with ex-wife Robin Bobo, the GoFundMe page detailed that Duguay, 68, is flying from Florida to Orange County “every two weeks for ongoing” cancer treatment.
Speaking to Page Six on Tuesday, Duguay revealed that he “has been battling cancer for a year” after being diagnosed with “Stage 4 cancer which started in the colon.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Duguay for comment.
David Livingston/Getty Images Since going public with stage III non-Hodgkin lymphoma in November 2024, Dave Coulier has been candid about his illness, treatment and prognosis before his second diagnosis. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the patient’s lymphatic system, with “white blood cells called lymphocytes [that] grow abnormally and can form growths […]
According to the GoFundMe page, which lists Duguay as a “Co-organizer,” the athlete did not initiate the crowdfunding exercise. “Our dad has never been someone who asks for help … especially when it comes to money. He has always tried to handle everything on his own and didn’t want to burden anyone else with what he’s going through,” a description on the page read. “But after many conversations as a family, we decided to create this fundraiser for him because we’ve seen firsthand the weight this battle has placed on him, both physically and financially.”
At the time of publication, the initiative had raised nearly $21,000 from 114 donations. Its target was listed as $26,000.
The description also shed light on what Duguay has experienced in the wake of his diagnosis. It stated, “Because of his cancer, he hasn’t been able to work the way he normally would, yet he continues to fight with everything he has. Earlier in his treatment journey, the care he received in Florida nearly cost him his life. That led us to bring him to Orange County, where my sister and I live, so he could receive treatment here … and thankfully, it has helped him so far.”
John Stamos’ wife, Caitlin McHugh, is sharing a message of support for Dave Coulier amid his cancer battle. “While I do love how you use your experiences to help others, I sure hope God/the universe gives you a well-deserved break from it in the new year. ❤️❤️,” McHugh, 39, wrote in the comments section of […]
As for what the funds would specifically go towards, Duguay’s daughters provided further insight. “The cost of constant travel, along with medical care, holistic therapies, supplements, and alternative healing approaches he has committed to, has become extremely overwhelming financially,” the description continued, before noting that Duguay’s diagnosis is not slowing down.
“Recently, his cancer numbers have started to rise again, and while he continues his current treatments, we are now exploring additional treatment options outside of the United States in hopes of giving him the best possible chance,” the description read. “These treatments are very expensive and add another layer of financial strain during an already difficult time.”
Duguay, who played 12 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) including six seasons with the Rangers across two separate stints, told Page Six on Tuesday, “I find it extremely hard asking for funds for all these costs I’m going through.” He added, “Normally I’m helping others.”
Duguay, who is currently dating former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin, also told the outlet that cancer “sucks the life out of you” and has proven “so freaking costly” before offering an update on his battle.
“I am going to do all the alternatives, along with the Western medicine,” Duguay said. “What I am learning I will be able to share with others … I need to get better so I can help others.”
Duguay has been dating Palin, 62, since around 2022, with the athlete including glimpses of her in his social media posts over the years.

‘The Pitt’ Just Showed Us a Completely Different Side of the ER’s Most Polarizing Doctor in 2 Minutes
Editor’s note: The below contains spoilers for The Pitt Season 2 Episode 7 and mentions sexual abuse and self-harm.
Trinity Santos (Isa Briones) contains enough layers to rival the world’s largest onion. Her rocky first impression — blunt, arrogant, rushing into grisly procedures — contrasts with her strengths, which The Pitt dispenses over time: superb intuition, an eagle eye for valuable details, and staying level-headed during a crisis. It’s ironic that her abrasive demeanor divides The Pitt‘s viewers, since Santos wields that half-hostile, half-cavalier exterior as a shield. Season 1’s finale draws her painfully sensitive interior and innate tenderness into the open; by embracing the terrifying vulnerability she’s been habitually avoiding, Santos summons enough courage to open her home to Dennis Whitaker (Gerran Howell) and bare her heart to patient Max Wilcox (Aidan Laprete).
Circa Season 2, Santos remains her fluent-in-sarcasm self but boasts a smoother beside manner, a situationship of sorts with Dr. Yolanda Garcia (Alexandra Metz), and stable footing with her colleagues. That security vanishes thanks to an unrelentingly hellish day. As Santos nears her wits’ end in Episode 7, she stumbles into a touching stolen moment with a patient who, on paper, seems like the unlikeliest candidate to receive or provide comfort. The stolen moment spotlights her exemplary caretaker nature and reveals more wrenching context about why this woman moves through the world with wary, aching weariness.
‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Is Pushing Santos to Her Breaking Point
The Pitt‘s entire ensemble has positive qualities and flaws. Perfect heroes and evil villains need not apply, only messy humans who internalize their patients’ pain alongside their personal trauma. Trinity Santos, as tightly wound as a snapping rubber band on her best day, hasn’t exactly handled Season 2 with grace. Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi) isn’t privy to the fact Santos carries the humiliating bruises Dr. Frank Langdon (Patrick Ball) left, but it’s natural to assume a doctor in the trenches of her R2 year is overworked and overwhelmed. Even if Al-Hashimi’s motivations are well-meant, it’s unfair for Santos’ new superior to single her out with an unnecessary ultimatum.
Santos holds enough duality to sway between confidence and insecurity. Spiraling under pressure, it’s clearer than ever that her darkest enemies include perfectionism, self-hatred, and an acute fear of failure. Her private fears have been exposed under a microscope, and she can’t articulate this turmoil or channel it into an outlet. Her raw trauma responses keep her alive, but lashing out with incandescent fury is a habit to unlearn for the sake of her patients, her long-term health, and her loneliness — because, despite appearances, Santos longs for genuine connection. When she dares to cautiously reach out, she’s rebuffed back into an isolation born of her own making and people not bothering to look past her hidden daggers. She seems surprised when Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) reciprocates her concerns about Whitaker, but once she receives his empathetic ear, Santos abandons her normal pretenses.
‘The Pitt’s Shawn Hatosy Explains How Abbot’s “Unexpected” Arrival Shakes Up This Season
Hatosy and co-star Sepideh Moafi also discuss Al-Hashimi’s clash with Robby and the Season 1 moment that did Abbot dirty.
Even when she’s stretched too thin, Santos profoundly cares about the people for whom she’s responsible. When she suspects a father (Patrick Mulvey) of molesting his 9-year-old daughter, Kylie (Annabelle Toomey), an automatic switch activates the sheer range of her care: attentive, protective, impulsive, and ferocious enough to fight tooth-and-nail for Kylie’s wellfare, the consequences be damned. Given the anguishing implication that powerful men have violated more than Santos’ trust, Kylie spears her to the quick. Once Mel diagnoses Phylicia Ronson (Nyaling Marenah) with bulimia, Santos drops her dismissive impatience and offers compassionate support. Conversely, her frustration over her communication barriers with Harlow Graham (Jessica ‘Limer’ Flores), a symptom of the wider infrastructure’s inadequate disability accommodations, could never justify Santos’ dehumanizing treatment of Harlow. Combine her urgent profession with personal stressors, and the collision affects certain patients to the point of near-negligence.
Santos Singing to Baby Jane Doe in ‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Episode 7 Reinforces Her Kindness
As for the mysterious abandoned baby, she couldn’t care less. To be fair, while the nurses can ignore ear-piercing wailing, it’s one strain too many for Santos’ overstimulated nerves. Forced to problem-solve, her unconventional gamble works as well as her spontaneous emergency hunches. The Pitt‘s expert in soft-hearted cynicism didn’t have this on her bingo card — soothing an infant with the Hiligaynon lullaby, “Ili-Ili, Tulog Anay.” When Baby Jane Doe seeks reassurance, her innocent hand latching onto Santos’ finger, a begrudgingly charmed Trinity drops her walls without resistance. She has nothing to hide from a newborn. For once, she can rest, focus, and just be herself — a caretaker remembering her purpose.
Santos’ serenade expands her innate softness onto a defenseless human. What’s more, the pair briefly relieving each other’s distress occurs when Santos most needs an anchor. Her innocuous deflection about therapy earlier in the season feels harrowing after glimpsing her self-harm scars. She’s a survivor with bared teeth and a fierce heart, but rather than soldier forward in unnoticed silence, she deserves safety, healing, and steadying mentors whose positive reinforcement and corrective accountability will empower her into a truly magnificent doctor.

Jennifer Garner is reflecting on her co-parenting relationship with Ben Affleck and the complexities that come with raising children after a divorce.
The “13 Going On 30” actress explained that she has had to play both roles as mom and dad, while also admitting that co-parenting with her ex-husband brings “a little bit of loss.”
Jennifer Garner previously opened up about how “hard” her split from Ben Affleck was, noting that the transition was particularly difficult but for the help of her family.

Jennifer Garner Says Co-Parenting Made Her Become Both ‘Mom And Dad’ To Her Kids With Ben Affleck
Garner has pulled back the curtain on the bittersweet reality of raising children, Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel, with her ex-husband Affleck.
The “Elektra” actress made the candid revelation in a recent episode of Bustle’s “One Nightstand” YouTube series, where she and host Charlotte Owen discussed the book, “Anne of Green Gables,” by Lucy Maud, and dove into the relationship between siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, who adopted Anne Shirley by mistake.
Similar to the siblings, Owen asked Garner how she managed to find the balance in raising her children with intentionality and conscientiousness.

“I think that I do a bit of both,” she explained. “And I think my kids’ dad does too. Especially when your kids grow up in two separate households, I become mom and dad, and he becomes dad and mom.”
She continued, “You kind of can’t help it, right? Because you don’t have the benefit of both sides of the yin and yang being in the same house.”

The Actress Speaks On The ‘Loss’ Of Co-Parenting With Her Ex-Husband
Garner and Affleck first met on the set of “Pearl Harbor” but didn’t get involved with each other until a couple of years later. They struck up a close friendship by the summer of 2004, and got married in June the following year.
The former couple went on to welcome their three children and shared so many sweet memories until they decided to separate in 2015, before finalizing their divorce in 2018.
In an apparent bid to make up for the absence of the other partner, Garner explained that she had to “have a bit of both” upbringing qualities and appreciation “in the way” she and the “Accountant 2” actor parent.
“There’s a little bit of loss in that, but there’s also something gained in that,” she noted. “You also just learn. It’s made me let go and not focus so much on bringing up.”

Jennifer Garner Made A Rare Comment On Her ‘Hard’ Divorce From Ben Affleck
During a January interview with Marie Claire UK, Garner made a rare comment about her difficult split from Affleck.
“You have to be smart about what you can and can’t handle, and I could not handle what was out there,” she told the news outlet. “But what was out there was not what was hard. The fact of it is what was hard.”
“The actual breaking up of a family is what was hard,” Garner continued. “Losing a true partnership and friendship is what was hard.”
According to the news outlet, she explained that the transition was quite difficult, but she stayed through it, thanks in part to the support of her family and friends.

“I make a big, concerted effort to see my people as much as I can, because that’s what matters,” she shared. “That’s where your resilience is: it’s in your relationships and in the people who carry you through.”
The Actress Says She’s Able To Co-Parent With ‘Peace’
Despite their divorce, Garner and Affleck have kept their relationship cordial as they continue to co-parent their children.
The ex-couple has been seen out and about on several occasions with their children, and even sparked speculations that they were getting back together.
She has since opened up about co-parenting with Affleck with “peace” despite the difficulty of their divorce.
“I’m able to co-parent at this point in time with peace and equanimity and a partnership that I didn’t know I would ever get back to,” Garner shared with Marie Claire UK.

Jennifer Garner Says That ‘Time’ Heals Even The Pain Of Divorce
Speaking more on the matter of co-parenting with her ex-husband, Garner addressed the feeling of disdain that may arise due to a divorce, noting that some women may tell themselves they would never be friends with an ex-partner again.
However, according to the actress, “time” gives a person the opportunity to grow and heal from even a bad breakup.
She continued, “I think it’s important for women to know, when they think, ‘Oh, I’ll never see that, I’ll never have that feeling, I’ll never be friends with this person again,’ [that] time is the opportunity.”
“Time is the opportunity to heal. Time is the opportunity to forgive, to move on, and to find a new way to be friends,” Garner added.
