During a Radio Times interview in December 2020, the comic actress spoke about her rheumatoid arthritis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She explained then: "It\u2019s a privilege to get older, but it\u2019s not for wusses.<\/p>\n

"Things go a bit wrong\u2026 your rheumatoid arthritis knee stops you walking your dog a long way every morning.<\/p>\n

"You know you\u2019ve got to have a little op on that at some point, and you\u2019ve got to take six weeks off\u2026<\/p>\n

"But ultimately, it ain\u2019t so bad. Your teeth are a bit yellower, your chin has sagged, you\u2019re fatter, you\u2019re greyer."<\/p>\n

Most recently, Dawn disclosed that her knee pain from her osteoarthritis had become completely unbearable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last week, she announced that she would be cancelling her remaining tour dates to have emergency joint replacement surgery.<\/p>\n
