Chris Stark reveals testicular cancer diagnosis, urges male health checks

Chris Stark, co-host of Capital Breakfast, revealed his testicular cancer diagnosis during an emotional appearance on ITV's This Morning, expressing regret for ignoring symptoms he initially dismissed as a sports injury. At 38, Stark shared that a chance mention of discomfort during a doctor's visit led to an examination that confirmed his cancer. He described feeling like 'an idiot' for not addressing the painful sensation sooner, emphasizing the importance of seeking medical advice when something feels wrong. After undergoing surgery and chemotherapy, Stark has received the all-clear but continues to advocate for men's health awareness. He has been moved by the support from other men who have reached out to him since his diagnosis. Dr. Zoe Williams joined the segment to demonstrate how to perform a testicular self-exam, encouraging men to take charge of their health.
