Neil Diamond opened up about coming to terms his Parkinson’s disease diagnosis, which he first revealed publicly in 2018.<\/p>\n

The 82-year-old legend admitted he struggled to accept his diagnosis and was in denial for a year or two during an interview on “CBS Sunday Morning,” which will air April 2.<\/p>\n

“I’m still doing it. And I don’t like it,” the music legend <\/a>said. “But \u2026 this is me; this is what I have to accept. And I’m willing to do it. And, OK, so this is the hand that God’s given me, and I have to make the best of it, and so I am. I am.”<\/p>\n

Host Anthony Mason asked Diamond about the moment he accepted that he has Parkinson’s, a progressive disorder of the central nervous system that affects movement.<\/p>\n

“I think this has just been in the last few weeks,” the Grammy winner responded.<\/p>\n

“But somehow, a calm has moved [into] the hurricane of my life, and things have gotten very quiet, as quiet as this recording studio. And I like it. I find that I like myself better. I’m easier on people. I’m easier on myself. And the beat goes on, and it will go on long after I’m gone.”<\/p>\n

The singer announced<\/u><\/a> in January 2018 he was retiring from touring after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s.\u00a0The singer-songwriter also announced dates for the final leg of his 50th anniversary world tour were canceled.<\/p>\n

In December, Diamond surprised the crowd <\/a>at the opening night of “A Beautiful Noise, The Neil Diamond Musical” with an impromptu performance of “Sweet Caroline.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Written by Anthony McCarten and produced by Ken Davenport and Bob Gaudio, “A Beautiful Noise” is based on Diamond’s life and musical career.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Diamond and his wife Katie McNeil walked the red carpet ahead of the show’s opening night and were met with a standing ovation when they entered the theater.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While standing next to McNeil in their box seats, Diamond led theatergoers in a singalong of his 1969 megahit during curtain call at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York City.<\/p>\n

The audience erupted in cheers and applause as he began singing the classic tune with the crowd joining in for the chorus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The New York City native’s last hometown performance was on New Year’s Eve in Times Square at the end of 2017. The “I’m a Believer” hitmaker<\/u><\/a> has made few public appearances since announcing his retirement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, he joined Will Swenson, who plays the younger version of Diamond in the musical, for a performance of “Sweet Caroline” last June during a Boston Red Sox game at Fenway Park in Boston.<\/p>\n

During Diamond’s interview on CBS, Mason asked him about the hardest part of watching his life story portrayed in the Broadway musical<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It was all pretty hard,” Diamond admitted. “I was a little embarrassed. I was flattered, and I was scared.”<\/p>\n

Mason asked, “What were you scared of?”<\/p>\n

“Being found out is the scariest thing you can hope, because we all have a fa\u00e7ade,” he replied. “And the truth be known to all of ’em. I’m not some big star. I’m just me.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
