Sir Cliff Richard's prostate cancer "isn't even detectable" anymore.

The 86-year-old singer was diagnosed with the condition in 2024 after it was detected during a routine insurance medical screening ahead of a tour and he spent a year undergoing treatment. Cliff has explained he still goes for regular tests to make sure the cancer hasn't returned and his latest results indicated he remains in remission.

He told Hello! magazine: "When I had prostate cancer - a very small one caught early - the doctor felt that it could possibly be ignored, but I was about to tour so I didn't want to ignore it.

"I took the treatment and medication, and when I went back for tests recently, they said that it isn't even detectable. I'm now tested every six months.

"I was so lucky that it hadn't spread. If you can get early detection, you're better off, though I do realise that it's expensive to test for it, so most can't afford to pay for early tests.

"I would be happy to support campaigners who want to give everyone early-detection testing on the NHS."

Cliff is making the most of his good health by getting back to music. His latest album Only Number Ones is due for release on November 27 and features new recordings of 12 chart-topping songs spanning eight decades. Among the tracks are Sign of the Times, originally recorded by Harry Styles, 32, Oh, Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison, My Sweet Lord by George Harrison and Return to Sender by Elvis Presley.

While Cliff is happy recording new music, in the interview with Hello! he admitted he won't be doing any more big tours but would be happy to play one-off shows.

He told the publication: "I might like to do the odd concert every now and then. Perhaps 'A Knight with Sir Cliff'! Maybe two shows at the London Palladium or at the Royal Albert Hall.

"I certainly don't want to have to travel like I did in 2025 for my Can't Stop Me Now tour. I was in the air for over 50 hours - I was exhausted. You still have to give the same upbeat performance every night, regardless of how you actually feel."

However, Cliff has no plans for a performance at the UK's fabled Glastonbury Festival, adding: "I've never really fancied Glastonbury. When I see these fabulous artists who get there, they don't always sound like their records."
