Harvey Weinstein has been diagnosed with a rare form of bone marrow cancer, according to reports.According to ABC News, the disgraced director is being treated for chronic myeloid leukemia in a New York prison, where he is currently serving a 16 year sentence following a 2022 California rape conviction.Weinstein’s authorised legal healthcare representative in New York, Craig Rothfeld, declined to comment “out of respect for Mr Weinstein’s privacy”.Weinstein’s diagnosis comes after a year of extensive health issues.

Last month, he was taken to intensive care recovering from emergency heart surgery and was recently said to be a “train-wreck health-wise” having been admitted to the same hospital for 10 days earlier this year.

He was admitted again in July after testing positive for COVID-19 and contracting pneumonia in both of his lungs.He was found guilty on February 24, 2020 of first-degree and third-degree rape and sentenced to 23 years in prison.

In April, the New York Court of Appeals overturned Weinstein’s 2020 conviction for rape, deeming that the judge at the trial gave improper rulings.
