The Devil Wears Prada actor, 62, who was diagnosed with the illness in 2017, told Willie Geist on Sunday Sitdown that “it was terrifying” when he first learned he was sick. Tucci reflected on how he and his late wife, actor Kate Spath-Tucci, had “travelled all over the world trying to find a cure for her” before she died from breast cancer in 2009.
