NEWS OF THE WEEK: Jeff Bridges reveals tumour has shrunk 'to the size of a marble'

The Big Lebowski actor was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma after doctors found a "9-by-12-inch tumor" in his stomach in 2020. During his battle with cancer, he contracted Covid-19 in January 2021 and was hospitalised for five weeks. While speaking to AARP for an interview published on Tuesday, Bridges revealed the tumour has shrunk "to the size of a marble" after oral and infusion chemotherapy treatments. While his cancer has been in remission since September 2021, The Old Man star admitted that his recovery from the coronavirus took much longer.
