Joe Amabile, a star of Bachelor in Paradise, says a routine health scan has uncovered a brain tumor. In a video posted on Instagram, he reports that doctors found a “blueberry-size” lesion in his brain that appears to be a glioma, which he describes as an early-stage tumor. Amabile says he is preparing to undergo additional testing and treatment. Multiple outlets report that he expects surgery, including a craniotomy, within the next few weeks.
The reports characterize the discovery as coming unexpectedly during a scan and emphasize that further medical evaluation is underway to confirm details and guide next steps. Amabile’s public update focuses on sharing the initial findings, describing the lesion’s size and type as presented by his doctors, and informing fans about upcoming procedures. No sources provide additional clinical outcomes beyond the initial diagnosis and planned next steps.
