In December, speaking to TODAY.com, Coulier said he was diagnosed with HPV-related oropharyngeal tongue cancer in October 2025.

In November 2024, Coulier revealed he had been diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Then, in April 2025, he announced he was cancer-free.

During the interview on GMA, he said that he is in remission for both cancers.

Coulier talked about the importance of early detection, as he went in for a regular PET scan when something showed up in the back of his throat.

"I feel as though I can help people. I never wanted to be the poster boy for cancer, believe me, but now, I feel like I can encourage people to get those prostate exams and mammograms. Just talk to your doctors and get ahead of this," Coulier said. "Even though I'm in remission, I feel like cancer is always in the rear-view mirror behind me."
