Ewan McGregor had skin cancer.
The 'Moulin Rouge' star insists he is "fine" after having several cancerous
moles removed from just below his right eye.
Ewan decided it was "best to be looked at" by doctors after realizing his
pale skin meant he was at a greater risk of developing the potentially fatal
disease.
The 37-year-old actor explained to the BBC: "I just went to have them
checked, you have to be careful if you're pale skinned and you spend time in
the sun, with moles.
"I went to see a specialist who thought they were better to be removed, and
indeed he was correct. The surgery was not that big of a deal."
When asked if he found the experience frightening, he replied sarcastically:
"It was great fun having skin cancer, it was great, I really enjoyed it!"
Ewan married French production designer Eve Mavrakis in 1995.
The couple have two daughters, six-year-old Esther Rose and two-year-old
Clara Mathilde.
They also have an adopted four-year-old daughter Jamiyan, who they brought
to the UK from Mongolia in 2006.
Ewan is currently starring in thriller 'Deception' alongside Michelle
Williams and Hugh Jackman.
