Dave Coulier reveals new cancer diagnosis, 7 months after beating lymphoma

A little over a year after being diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Dave Coulier announced exclusively on the "TODAY" show that he is undergoing treatment for an unrelated tongue cancer

A little over a year after being diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Dave Coulier announced exclusively on the "TODAY" show that he is undergoing treatment for an unrelated tongue cancer.

The actor, who played Uncle Joey on “Full House,” joined "TODAY" on Tuesday to share an update on his health and discuss the launch of his new wellness endeavor.

Coulier, 66, was diagnosed with HPV-related oropharyngeal tongue cancer in October, he told TODAY.com in a phone interview.

Just seven months before, Coulier had shared that he was cancer-free thanks to chemotherapy. He had previously revealed his Stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis in November 2024 on "TODAY."

“To go through chemotherapy and feel that relief of 'Whoah, it’s gone,' and then to get a test that says, 'Well now you’ve got another kind of cancer,' ... it is a shock to the system,” Coulier said.
