The Today Extra host and his wife, Lisa Hewitt, are very close to the Kath and Kim star, who is godmother to their 10-year-old daughter, Betty.
Campbell spoke about how he broke the news of Subanski’s diagnosis to his daughter in an age-appropriate manner.
The singer and actor shared that it would’ve been harder to explain if Betty were younger, but “what we just said was what Magda told everybody: She’s not well, but she is surrounded by the most incredible doctors, particularly in Melbourne.”

Campbell and his wife also recently opened up about the comedian’s health in a podcast interview.
One month ago, they said on Something to Talk About, “She talked about the fact that having that outpouring of emotion, and the support that she’s felt, has been instrumental in her getting through everything.”
Campbell said the comedy legend, known for her portrayal of Sharon Strzelecki in Kath & Kim, “laughs at everything”.

“She laughs at us. She laughs at herself. And she made us laugh at the cancer with her,” he said.
“And they say laughter is the best medicine. It’s kind of true. It does make people feel better.”
In May, Szubanski revealed her cancer battle, sharing an emotional video with fans and receiving an outpouring of support afterwards.

“Lovelies. Well. Some not great news. I’ve been diagnosed with stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma – a rare and fast-moving blood cancer,” she captioned the Instagram post.
“It’s serious, but I’ve started one of the best treatments available (the Nordic protocol), and I’m lucky to be getting absolutely world-class care here in Melbourne.
Nordic protocol treats Mantle Cell Lymphoma by administering drugs in five stages, eventually hoping to shrink the tumours.
“I won’t sugar-coat it: it’s rough. But I’m hopeful. I’m being lovingly cared for by friends and family, my medical team is brilliant, and I’ve never felt more held by the people around me,” she concluded.
