Eddie Mongtomery, half of the Country Music duo Montgomery Gentry, has confirmed to USA Today that he has prostate cancer.
 
“Yes, rumors have started. And the truth is I have recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer. I will be undergoing surgery to remove the cancerous tumor in December,” Montgomery told USA Today. 
 
The 47-year-old Country Music star said he’d be back in January but asked fans keep his family in their prayers.
 
Montgomery Gentry are scheduled to perform this Monday at Charlie Daniels' Christmas 4 Kids concert at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.
