Harvey Weinstein has bone marrow cancer, undergoing treatment in prison
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.
