Jill Biden Shares Concerns Over Husband's Nighttime Bathroom Trips Linked to Prostate Cancer Diagnosis Former first lady Jill Biden revealed during an interview on August 5 that she had noticed troubling patterns in her husband’s behavior before his prostate cancer diagnosis, describing how he would use the bathroom up to seven times during the night. She shared these details on SiriusXM’s “Let’s Talk Off Camera With Kelly Ripa,” recounting how she had previously raised concerns about his frequent nighttime trips to the White House physicians. “I thought it was addressed,” she said, recalling her belief that the issue had been evaluated while her husband was in the presidency. However, after Biden left the White House in January 2025 and the behavior persisted, Jill urged him to seek further medical attention. “When it continued when we got out of the White House, I said, ‘Joe, we’ve got to go up to Jeff in Philly – something’s wrong,’” she explained. Biden, 83, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer in May 2025 after experiencing urinary symptoms. Doctors discovered a nodule on his prostate, and by the time the condition was detected, the cancer had already spread to his bones, according to a statement from his office. Jill Biden emphasized that the cancer’s progression was a significant challenge, noting that treatment is ongoing and requires constant monitoring. “We have to be mindful of it every three months, testing and medicines,” she told Ripa. She described the experience as “constant. It’s daily. And I think it’s challenging,” drawing on her own history of battling cancer with family members, including her late son Beau Biden, who died in 2015 at age 46 after a battle with brain cancer.#jill_biden #american_cancer_society #joe_biden #philly #jeff
