Former Scotland rugby union international Kenny Logan has revealed on
#BBCBreakfast
he's been treated for prostate cancer
Kenny and Gabby Logan spoke to Sally Nugent about his diagnosis
I am extremely proud and very chuffed to have been awarded an MBE in the New Year’s Honours list. I have been so lucky to see close up the power sport has to entertain, inspire and change lives, I am so lucky my passion became my work.
Todays news is still sinking in. Wasps gave me everything and I always tried to give my best back. Not just the trophies and the medals we won but a family and a community that I belonged to and still do. I refuse to believe this is the end of Wasps we will rise again.

Honoured to have

Kenny's work raising awareness for prostate cancer is something the whole rugby family in Scotland is proud of.

It’s been a tough 7 weeks going through all the PSA blood tests, MRI scans & biopsy. Sadly I found out on Wednesday I have prostate cancer but I have got it early & it’s contained in the prostate. My advice to men over 50 is to get tested asap as I had no symptoms ❤️
Absolutely devastated to hear the news about Chester Williams passing, rugby has lost a true legend , sending my Love to his family and friends. Rest in peace Chester. 🙏🏻
