In a deeply personal video message, Brad Arnold, the frontman of 3 Doors Down, opened up about a devastating health diagnosis, announcing to fans that he is battling stage 4 kidney cancer.

The 45-year-old singer revealed that he has been diagnosed with clear cell renal carcinoma, a rare and aggressive form of kidney cancer that has already spread to his lungs.

“Hi everybody, it’s Brad, from 3 Doors Down”, he begins, his voice steady but emotional. “I hope you’re having a great day today. Um, got some not so good news for you today”.

He went on to explain how recent illness led to a hospital visit – and an unexpected, life-changing discovery.

“(I was) sick a couple of weeks ago and then I went to the hospital and got checked out, actually got the diagnosis that I had a clear cell renal cell carcinoma, that had metastasized into my lungs”, he shared. “And that’s stage 4, and that’s not real good”.

Despite the severity of the diagnosis, Arnold expressed an unshakable sense of faith and calm. “But you know what, we serve a mighty God, and he can overcome anything”, he said. “So I have no fear, I really sincerely am not scared of it at all”.

With his condition now requiring urgent treatment, Arnold announced that 3 Doors Down’s summer tour has been called off. “But it is gonna force us to cancel our tour this summer and we’re sorry for that”, he said, offering his sincere apologies to fans.

The band’s official website has since been updated to reflect the news, stating simply: “no upcoming events”. They had been due to perform at multiple venues including Daytona International Speedway this month in Florida, the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion, New Jersey, in July, and a gig at the White River Amphitheatre, Washington, in August.

Arnold also issued a special plea as he said: “I’d love for you to lift me up in prayer any chance you get”. He ended his brave message by saying his band’s song It’s Not My Time would serve as his own personal anthem.

“It’s time for me to listen to ‘ It’s Not My Time a little bit, right? Thank you guys so much. God loves you, we love you. See ya”.

Arnold also wrote in a poignant caption: “Thank you for all the memories so far. Now, I believe ‘ ITS NOT MY TIME ‘ is really my song.

” This’ll be a battle so we need our prayers warriors! Thank y’all for being the best fans in the world. We love y’all! “

Following his sad announcement, fans fo Brad’s have shared their sympathy with the musician”. I’m sobbing. I’m so sorry. Life is so unfair, “one wrote. Another echoed:” So so so so so sad to hear this. You are so strong my man. You got this. “

” It’s an awful world we live in when bad things happen to good people. Sending you so much love Brad, “another added.

Coleen Rooney has broken her silence after the Wagatha Christie row came to a close. Rebekah Vardy agreed to pay Coleen nearly £1.2million after the six-year Wagatha row.

Now, Coleen has posted to her Instagram Stories in the aftermath of the ruling. Coleen wrote: “The ruling yesterday in my favour finally brings this claim to an end, it’s a relief and brings closure for my family and I.”

She went on: “Throughout this long process, I am grateful that judgements have consistently gone my way. However, as I have always maintained, this claim did not need to be made or run for as long as it did. The time and money should have been put to better use.

“I want to thank my legal representatives, management, friends and family for their guidance and constant support. Thanks also to the public and many well-wishers who have been in touch with such kind messages.”

Coleen concluded by saying: “This episode is not something that I ever wanted in my life. However, I am thankful for the way my family and team have dealt with it. We look forward to moving on with our lives.”

Coleen, the wife of former footballer Wayne took to social media to reveal that she had secretly been plotting a sting operation after a string of stories shared on her private social media had been leaked to the media. The Liverpudlian narrowed down accounts with access to her posts in order to discover which account was leaking the information.

In 2019, Coleen took to social media to reveal: “It was….. Rebekah Vardy’s account,” after she had blocked her followers from seeing her Instagram Stories. The posts included a fake story that she was heading to Mexico for gender selection, as well as eyeing up a stint on Strictly Come Dancing.

After Coleen’s “reveal” of Rebekah, the wife of footballer Jamie Vardy strongly denied the allegations and implied that her Instagram account had been hacked.

Rebekah later launched a defamation case against her former pal Coleen for her social media post which she claimed had defamed her. However, a hearing at The Royal Courts of Justice on Tuesday this week heard that Rebekah must pay almost £1.2million.

A specialist costs court has previously been told that Coleen , the wife of former England striker Wayne, ran up a legal bill totalling more than £1.8 million after she successfully defended Vardy’s High Court claim in 2022. In written submissions for a hearing on Tuesday, Mrs Vardy’s barrister, Juliet Wells, said that Mrs Rooney’s total legal bill of £1,833,906.89 “has now been settled at £1,190,000, being c.£1,125,000 plus interest of c.£65.000”.

Ms Wells continued that Mrs Rooney is now claiming “assessment costs” of more than £300,000, which she described as “grossly disproportionate” and should be capped at “no more than £100,000”. The full amount of the assessment costs will be determined at the hearing before Costs Judge Mark Whalan, who said he was “pleased” that the two sides had come to a “commercial accommodation”.

Both Rebekah and Coleen were absent from the remote hearing.

Former Love Island star Molly-Mae Hague has celebrated her on-off partner Tommy Fury on his 26th birthday with an emotional tribute

Molly-Mae Hague has appeared to have finally officially confirmed that she’s back with her ex-fiancé Tommy Fury as she shared an emotional birthday tribute to him on Wednesday.

Professional boxer and former Love Island star Tommy is celebrating his 26th birthday today – and unlike last year, Molly-Mae, 25, didn’t miss out on marking his special day.

Taking to her Instagram stories on Wednesday evening, Molly-Mae finally put the rumours to bed about her and Tommy’s relationship status as she penned an emotional birthday message.

The social media megastar, who shared two-year-old daughter Bambi with Tommy, shared an adorable photo from the family’s recent trip to Dubai.

After admitting that the getaway to Dubai was ‘the best holiday of her life’, Molly-Mae delighted fans as she shared a snippet into her and Tommy’s time with Bambi in the United Arab Emirates.

Alongside an adorable snap of Tommy embracing Bambi while watching the sunset, she wrote: “Happy Birthday to you. You make our little girls world light up.”

Molly-Mae and Tommy shocked fans when they ended their relationship last summer. However, the pair seemingly reunited at the beginning of 2025 when they were pictured sharing a New Year’s Eve kiss, and have since enjoyed holidays to Dubai, Budapest and UK staycation spot Center Parcs.

While they didn’t disclose the reason for breaking up at the time of their split, both Tommy and Molly-Mae have since revealed it was the boxer’s unsteady relationship with alcohol that caused a downward spiral.

During previously released episodes of Molly-Mae’s documentary, she admitted Tommy’s drinking had taken a toll on her and recalled “begging and pleading” him not to drink during family occasions, including her sister Zoe’s wedding. The Maebe founder also admitted she “couldn’t remember” any moments where his drinking didn’t end in “disaster.”

The pair announced their split through individual Instagram statements back in August. “Never in a million years did I think I’d ever have to write this,” Molly-Mae told her 8 million followers at the time.

“After five years together I never thought our story would end, especially not this way. I am extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy’s relationship has come to an end.”

“I will forever be grateful for the most important thing to me now and always, my beautiful daughter. Without us there would be no her, she will always be my priority.”

Molly-Mae reached out to her followers with a heartfelt message as she added: “I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years. You have all been a part of our journey and I feel it’s right to share this with you all. Whilst I attempt to navigate the coming days and weeks, please kindly respect my privacy over this difficult time. I’ll be back when it feels right. Molly-Mae x.”

Tommy then posted on his Instagram as he wrote “I am heartbroken to share that Molly and I have decided to end our relationship. The past 5 years have led to us having our beautiful baby girl, Bambi and I will be forever thankful to Molly for making me a dad.”

At the time, he concluded his post by saying: “Bambi is our priority. Please respect our privacy, and our families privacy, as we navigate our way through this difficult time”.
