Stanley Tucci attended the Women’s Prize For Fiction Awards 2021 on Wednesday in London – days after revealing he secretly battled cancer in 2018.
The Devil Wears Prada actor, 60, showed off his sense of style in a grey jacket and navy chinos as he posed for snaps beside his wife Felicity Blunt, 40.

Meanwhile literary agent Felicity looked great in a pair of bright blue high-waisted trousers and clashing green vest.
Felicity – who is also the elder sister of actress Emily Blunt – and Stanley have been married since 2012 and have two children together.
It comes after earlier this week Stanley revealed he was diagnosed with cancer three years ago and went through chemotherapy.
The star opened up about his health scare publicly for the first time in an interview with Vera.
‘It was too big to operate, so they had to do high-dose radiation and chemo,’ the Hunger Games actor explained, also sharing that he was intubated for a full six-months during his treatment.

Tucci’s treatments were successful, and the actor said it’s unlikely that the cancer will return.
The actor’s wife, Kate, died of breast cancer in 2009. Tucci said her experience with chemo made him hesitant to begin treatment.
He explained, ‘I’d vowed I’d never do anything like that, because my first wife died of cancer, and to watch her go through those treatments for years was horrible.’
In addition, the Easy A star talked about the emotional distress his diagnosis caused his children.

‘The kids were great, but it was hard for them,’ he said. ‘I had a feeding tube for six months. I could barely make it to the twins’ high school graduation.’
As for himself, Tucci said he feels like the disease aged him significantly.
‘[Cancer] makes you more afraid and less afraid at the same time. I feel much older than I did before I was sick. But you still want to get ahead and get things done.’
Despite dealing with his health issues, the actor has still stayed very busy in his career.
