**Dave Coulier Diagnosed With Tongue Cancer Months After Lymphoma Battle**
Actor and comedian Dave Coulier, best known for his role as Joey on the hit TV show “Full House,” has been diagnosed with tongue cancer. The news was confirmed on December 2, 2025, just seven months after the star announced he had successfully completed treatment for Stage 3 Lymphoma.
Coulier, 66, shared earlier this year that he had beaten cancer after undergoing chemotherapy and radiation. A source close to the actor revealed that his recent symptoms led to further testing, which confirmed the presence of tongue cancer. The type and stage of the tongue cancer have not been publicly disclosed.
The diagnosis comes as a difficult setback after what seemed to be a positive recovery earlier in the year. Coulier has not yet made a public statement regarding the latest diagnosis. His representatives have requested privacy as he prepares for a new round of treatment.
Tongue cancer is a type of oral cancer that can affect speaking, eating, and swallowing. Common symptoms include persistent mouth pain, ulcers that don’t heal, or lumps in the tongue. Treatment options often involve surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy, depending on the severity.
Fans and colleagues have expressed support online after the news broke. Many are sending well wishes and encouragement using the hashtag #PrayForCoulier. Several co-stars from “Full House” have also posted messages of hope, though none have spoken in detail.
Coulier was a central part of the “Full House” cast from 1987 to 1995, playing Joey Gladstone. He later returned for the Netflix reboot “Fuller House.” Known for his child-friendly humor and impersonations, Coulier remains a favorite among fans of family television.
This marks the second time in less than a year that Coulier will undergo cancer treatment. Medical experts often say a second cancer diagnosis after initial treatment can happen, sometimes due to the effects of earlier therapies.
As of now, it’s unclear when Coulier will begin treatment or what it will involve. Friends and family are reportedly staying close to support him.
