I don’t think that there is anything special about sun and bladder cancer unless he is taking some kind of medication where that would be a problem and, if so, his doctor would have mentioned it.
However, suntanning is not a good idea anyway. In the past two years I have had to have two skin cancers removed. One a malignant melanoma and one a squamous cell carcinoma that had to be removed by a plastic surgeon. Both were scary and not fun.
