Paramount chair Shari Redstone discloses thyroid cancer diagnosis
- Shari Redstone, 71-year-old chair of Paramount Global, disclosed a thyroid cancer diagnosis revealed earlier this spring and is undergoing treatment while maintaining professional duties.
- About two months prior, she consulted a doctor due to fatigue, which led to a thyroid cancer diagnosis and subsequent surgery to remove her thyroid; however, cancer cells had already spread to her vocal cords.
- Redstone shared the diagnosis only with close relatives, friends, and advisers including Skydance founder David Ellison as she guides a pending $8.4 billion Paramount merger.
- A spokesperson stated that she and her family appreciate the positive outlook on her prognosis, while the merger awaits FCC approval and faces complications due to a lawsuit filed by President Trump.
- Redstone’s health challenge emerges amid a complex sale process where failing FCC approval could trigger a $400 million breakup fee and delay the family’s exit.
