The pair also insisted that the illness 'very treatable' and maintained a positive attitude, vowing to 'not stress' over the diagnosis. 'We always try to be open and honest. We're open books with our lives,' Kevin said. 'We want to give you guys a quick update about something that's happening over here in the Manno family, but I'm not stressing about it.'.

He continued, 'I know that Ali shared this recently that I had to go in for a scan — a biopsy and then a CT scan. And it came back that I do have thyroid cancer,' he confirmed. 'But I'm not freaking out.'. The pair — who wed in 2017 and have two young children — also took to the caption to further explain that the two 'malignant spots on his right side' and the cancer are 'in one lymph node, but we won’t know for sure until his surgery.'.
