On the January 2 episode of the Bravo show, Madison and Brett were golfing alongside the reality TV star’s son, Hudson, where they spoke about Brett’s cancer symptoms.

“It doesn’t necessarily hurt, I just have to think about it to swallow,” he confessed. “They have to adjust the medication. I’ll try that for a couple months and then get tested and see if that’s where I should be. And they did a scan of a spot on my kidney so … they had to biopsy that and see what it is.”

Madison asked if the medical professionals believed the spot was cancerous, to which Brett noted they didn’t yet know.

“If I hear the word 'cancer' one more time, I’m going to lose my mind,” she said in her confessional. “I just kind of thought we were in the clear.”

“They said that, you know, good chance it could be nothing,” Brett assured his wife. “But my last few blood tests were off, so that’s why they were concerned about it.”

The hunk stated he didn’t want to share the news with Madison at first because he didn't want her to worry.

“I need you to be able to tell me this,” Madison insisted, to which Brett replied, “You know I don’t talk about things,” referring to how he often kept to himself growing up as one of eight siblings.

“Well, I love you,” she stated. “Just make sure you tell me from now on. No more secrets.”
