Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell recently told radio station YSKL that he has cancer again. Campbell previously revealed that he was battling Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2013, which returned in 2015. And I realized at that point that I had to do a donor transplant.
It was my only hope to survive. … I did that in January of ’25. … Unfortunately, it didn’t stick. So the cancer has returned, and I’m continuing treatments to manage it. He’s also doing rally driving.
Prior to Def Lep, he played in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal band Sweet Savage, the first lineup of Ronnie James Dio’s band Dio, and briefly in Whitesnake. He later formed the Last in Line, which takes its name from a Dio song, and, in 2005, put out a solo album, Two Sides of If. Def Leppard’s most recent release is the single, “Rejoice,” which came out in January.
