In the post, Jessie expressed her gratitude, writing: “And I am OK, results = I have no cancer spread, happy tears are real. Thank you for the prayers, the love, the well wishes, the joy and all the positive energy.” She added that although another surgery is still required, she is focusing on healing and embracing gratitude.
The London-born artist first shared her diagnosis in early June, explaining she had been undergoing tests. “Cancer sucks in any form, but I’m holding on to the word ‘early’,” she said at the time. Known for her honesty and humour, Jessie remarked, “It’s a very dramatic way to get a boob job,” before announcing a temporary break from performing to focus on her health.

She has vowed to overcome breast cancer, telling fans at Capital’s Summertime Ball that she would “beat it.” With three UK number one singles and numerous awards to her name, Jessie continues to inspire many with her resilience and openness.
