Andy Taylor, the founding guitarist of Duran Duran, is currently battling stage 4 prostate cancer, diagnosed in November 2022, though he had been asymptomatic since 2018. At a recent Sanremo Music Festival press conference, frontman Simon Le Bon expressed the band's unwavering support for Taylor during his difficult fight. Their camaraderie extends beyond music, as Le Bon highlighted that their long-lasting relationship is rooted in mutual respect, laughter, and equal sharing of proceeds, which has contributed to their enduring success as a band throughout the decades.
I am sure he would love to be here. He's fighting as hard as he can, and we are with him in that fight.
There is something between us that keeps us together. First of all, we love the music we make together.
We make each other laugh, and I think that's very important in a long relationship.
We split all the proceeds equally. No one takes all the publishing. We all share the finances equally.
