Pornostar Ben Dover reveals he's battling bladder cancer and leaves Outnumbered actor son Tyger Drew-Honey devastated

Pornostar Ben Dover has revealed he's undergoing chemotherapy treatment to battle bladder cancer.

Britain's most famous adult film actor has been left "very weak and tired" by the disease but has vowed to battle it.

The actor, who has starred in more than 130 erotic films, is the father of Outnumbered star Tyger Drew-Honey, who is said to have been left devastated by the news.

Ben, whose real name is Simon Honey but who now uses the name Lindsay, told The Sun that he had been diagnosed with the disease.

The 60-year-old said: "Hopefully I will be okay but you can never tell. They are doing more tests so fingers crossed basically that is all we can do.

"It has really knocked me and Tyger back. I’ve already had two operations and need more chemo to nip it in the bud before it goes through the wall.

"I’m trying everything. I’ve got six weeks ahead of me followed by more tests. If it doesn’t work they will have to take my bladder out but I seriously hope that isn’t going to happen."
