Below Deck Down Under star Jason Chambers has been diagnosed with skin cancer.
The reality star and boat captain, 52, took to Instagram on Monday to reveal her melanoma diagnosis and admitted she had gone years without sunscreen.
He said: ‘Update on the biopsy I had. He came back with melanoma. I’m in Australia. That was done in Bali.
‘The Australian doctors, who are fantastic in Australia, were not happy with the instructions they were being told to move on to stage two, which would be to cut out a larger section and examine the glands.
‘Look, Australia, two in three people have melanoma. It’s a great thing. I never used to wear sunscreen when I was on the boat. I used to put zinc in my nose because of the chemicals. But there are so many products now that are chemical-free, which is fantastic.
‘For someone who spent his life in the sun, from being a child playing sports to working in the ocean, I thought he was resistant to the sun’s damaging effects.

The reality star and boat captain, 52, took to Instagram on Monday to reveal her melanoma diagnosis and admitted she had gone years without sunscreen.
‘I love the sun and its health benefits are obvious, but be careful and like everything in life, it’s all about balance, choose your battles.
“So make sure you put on some sunscreen, get some shade, cover up and enjoy your day in the sun.”
“With a melanoma biopsy diagnosed, I now have an anxious wait and what I thought was a spot on my skin was transformed in just 6 months – early detection is the key.”
Treatment includes by removing the entire section of the tumor or by the surgeon removing the skin layer by layer, iImmunotherapy, radiotherapy or chemotherapy:
Melanoma is the most dangerous form of skin cancer. It occurs after the DNA of skin cells is damaged (usually due to harmful ultraviolet rays) and then not repaired, thereby triggering mutations that can form malignant tumors.
Chambers joined the Bravo show in 2022. The series chronicles the lives of crew members who work and reside aboard a 150-foot-plus superyacht during a six-week charter season in Australia.
Chambers shares his eight-year-old daughter Saskia with his ex-wife Fuchsia Quinn.
Chambers recently set tongues wagging over speculation that he was dating model Laura Csortan.
In July, the former Great Outdoors host, 46, shared a video on Instagram of herself enjoying a drink beachside with the reality show in Bali.
In the footage, the couple sat in a lounge and clinked glasses before having a drink while a friend filmed them.
But the model and Miss Australia winner told Daily Mail Australia she was in Bali for work and had caught up with friends, including Jason, during her trip.
