‘Don’t forget your sunscreen!!!’ added another, with one user writing, “Looking good. I hope you’re wearing sunscreen.’
It comes days after Hugh shared a positive update about his recent skin cancer scare.
The Hollywood star revealed last week that he had two biopsies after his doctor noticed “little things” that could be basal cell carcinoma – the most common form of skin cancer.
The Greatest Showman star confirmed in an Instagram story that the biopsies had returned with a negative result.
Last Thursday, Hugh was relieved to report that the biopsies had returned with a negative result
Hugh had shared a video of himself with a bandage over his nose earlier that week, believed to be where the biopsies were taken
My biopsies were negative!!! Thank you ALL for the love. I feel it!’ he was excited.
The Golden Globe winner also thanked fans and media for spreading awareness.
He reminded fans to be safe from the sun and “wear sunscreen with a high SPF” no matter the season.
Hugh had shared a video earlier this week of himself wearing a bandage over his nose, believed to be where the biopsies were taken.
In 2017, The Greatest Showman star had six skin cancers removed from his face within a two-year period. In 2021, he had an inconclusive result after a biopsy on his face, which showed BCC was the worst it could be.
He told ABC News in 2015 that his childhood was “all outdoors,” and that protective ointments like sunscreen weren’t a priority in his family.
“I don’t think my mom or dad ever bought it or forced us to put it on,” he said.
“What I remember most, the rule about being outside, was that you couldn’t swim within half an hour of eating … and that’s not true.”
