I'd love everybody to pray for Gregg...pray for his strength...and pray for me, too."
Gregg initially was said to be cancer-free in May 2019. The TV star broke the exciting by writing on social media, "No cancer found. Praise God. Look at God! We are over joyed to say, we saw the doctors for the results of Gregg' Pet Scan he took last week! Test show, wait for It…..WE ARE CANCER FREE!!! Yes God!"
