Former ROLLING STONES bassist Bill Wyman has been diagnosed with prostate cancer.

A spokesman for the musician said: "He is undergoing treatment and is expected to make a full recovery as it was caught in the early stages."

Born William Perks in Lewisham, London, the star was a member of the STONES from 1962 until 1993.

Since then, he has recorded and toured with his own band, BILL WYMAN'S RHYTHM KINGS.

The 79-year-old was pictured last weekend at the wedding of Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall.

In a statement, his family "asked for their privacy during this time."
