“Now, normally the prognosis for this is not very encouraging, but I’m going to fight this,” he says.
“Hi everyone, I have some news to share with all of you and it’s in keeping with my longtime policy of being open and transparent with our ‘Jeopardy’ fan base — Just like 50,000 other people in the United States each year, I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer,” Trebek, who’s been hosting the game show for 34 years, said in a video message released Wednesday.
In 2018, Trebek took a leave of absence from the show when he underwent surgery for a subdural hematoma. Trebek has two children, 29-year-old Matthew and 26-year-old Emily, with his wife Jean Currivan Trebek.More from MarketWatch We Want to Hear from You Join the conversation
