Kevin Schlehuber from Big Brother 19 recovering from cancer surgery

Kevin Schlehuber was a Big Brother 19 cast member who played on the same season as Josh Martinez and Paul Abrahamian. He posted on social media about going through cancer surgery.

During the Big Brother 19 season of 2017, Kevin Schlehuber finished in fourth place. This was due to a final three alliance that Paul Abrahamian, Josh Martinez, and Paul Abrahamian had. Recently, though, Kevin shared on social media that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer. The fan-favorite also updated his fans on Instagram this week, posting that he had gone through cancer surgery. It looks like he received a lot of good news from the process.

Kevin on Big Brother 19

While he was on the reality competition show, Kevin gained a lot of fans from the Big Brother community. He always had amusing anecdotes, stories, or interpretations from what was going on in the game that made him an extremely entertaining houseguest. He made it pretty far in the game and had he found a way to win that final four Head of Household Competition, could have really made a dent in the season finale.

There is still a long road ahead for Kevin Schlehuber, but this is great news and a major step toward beating cancer.
