Too Hot to Handle alum Harry Jowsey has taken to social media to give fans a health update.

In a vulnerable TikTok video, the 26-year-old reality star addressed his five million followers and shared he has been diagnosed with cancer.

He began: “Hi friends, there isn’t really an easy way to say this.

“Last week I went to the dermatologist to get my skin checked and they found some skin cancer on me.

“I’m gonna be all good, everything’s gonna be okay, but I just wanted to make this post to let you know that summer’s around the corner, please wear sunscreen."

He continued: “Please go get your skin checked. If you’re a freckly little frog like me, go get a mole map and get your body checked because you never know.

“I’ve had this on my shoulder for, like, a year or two and I had no idea.

“I just wanna save and protect you guys out there. So go get your skin checked, wear your sunscreen, and be a little bit more responsible.

“That’s what I’ve gotta do now and it’s very scary. Anyway, love you guys. Stay safe.”

The Australian TV personality, who starred on the first season of smash-hit Netflix show Too Hot to Handle in 2020, didn’t go into detail about what kind of skin cancer he’s been diagnosed with.
