During filming of Britain's Got Talent in July 2020, a suspicious Nevus on the left side of his head was found to be a melanoma. After treatment, he was given the all-clear by the end of the year. However, it was then discovered that the cancer had spread to his neck, which required major surgery and a course of treatment. This experience inspired a new show, Against The Odds, a one-man comedy musical that he took to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022.
