The former Angel has been diagnosed with intestinal cancer.

Farrah confirmed the National Enquirer's report, telling Entertainment Tonight, "Please respect my privacy at this challenging time."

According to the Enquirer

Doctors discovered a malignant tumor in her lower intestine and blasted it with radiation to shrink it, sources say.
After surgery to remove the deadly cancer, the 59-year-old former "Charlie's Angels" star faces chemotherapy and more grueling radiation treatments.

"After Farrah got the diagnosis -- cancer of the anus and lower intestine -- she was devastated. Everyone in the family cried for days," a longtime family friend told The Enquirer.

Fawcett has reportedly reconciled with her former long-time love, Ryan O'Neal, who himself overcame a battle with leukemia.

Tatum's dad is lending the actress support, and our thoughts are with her.

Farrah was always my favorite too. Then she got weird....hopefully thats passed. Anyway, Im glad she's back with Ryan, I always thought they were a cute couple. I hope Farrah beats this and has a complete recovery.

I loved the Farrah shampoo! I hope Farrah is going to be okay. It is remarkable that all three of them has had some form of cancer.

Isnt that poster of her from the 70's the biggest selling one ever?

Poor thing. She really seems to be insecure of how she aged. I think that's where her weirdness comes from. But for what it's worth, I've seen so many great performances from her acting-wise. She's pretty damn good.
