Kelly, who played Father Jack Hackett in the sitcom between 1995-98, is currently undergoing a seven-month chemotherapy course after having a tumour removed last year.
Kelly told The Mirror: "The tumour was the size of a bloody cabbage. I had discomforts and symptoms that I thought were just bowel problems.
"But when you're told it's cancer, it doesn't come as such a massive shock.
"I've made a complete recovery. But I need chemo to reduce the chance of it returning."
