Eric Braeden, renowned for his iconic role as Victor Newman on The Young and the Restless, recently made a poignant

appearance on “L Times Today” with Lisa McRee. During the interview, Braeden reflected on his remarkable 50-year

career in soap operas, showcasing his versatile portrayal of Victor Newman—from a ruthless villain to a caring father

and romantic lead. He also praised his co-star Laura Lee Bell, highlighting her kindness and the deep bond they share.

However, the conversation took a serious turn as Braeden revealed his battle with bladder cancer. The diagnosis came after persistent pain led him to seek a second opinion, uncovering the need for immediate treatment. Braeden is now undergoing immunotherapy and is committed to raising awareness about the importance of health screenings. He urges men to proactively get checked for prostate, bladder, and colon issues to prevent similar struggles.

Despite the challenges, Braeden reassured fans that he remains dedicated to his role on the show, dismissing any rumors of his departure. His advocacy and resilience have garnered widespread respect and support, highlighting his enduring impact both on and off-screen.
