Jessie J Reveals Her Cancer Is “All Gone” & Son Helped Her Through It

Jessie J shared a major health update this week, revealing her breast cancer surgery was successful and that she’s now cancer-free following a mastectomy and reconstruction.

“Pros: Cancer has all gone,” she wrote on Instagram Stories, confirming the operation went smoothly. “My nipple is where it used to be.”

The 36-year-old singer was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer in April and made the news public in June.

In her usual mix of honesty and humor, Jessie listed one of the unexpected upsides of recovery: “I can watch Love Island with no guilt. I am getting to rest and talk to friends more than ever.”

She also opened up about the emotional toll of the diagnosis and the shift in her daily life, especially as a mother to her two-year-old son, Sky.

“Not being able to be the mum I’m used to being,’ she added. “Not picking Sky up or the person I’m used to being tbh. I don’t sit down ever. lol.”

Still, she credited her support circle—her mother, her partner Chanan Safir Colman, and Sky—for helping her through it.

“My mom lives with us,” she wrote. “Sky just being Sky. Chanan making me feel safe and the messages are 10/10.”

On Friday morning (June 27), Jessie posted a heartfelt tribute to her son alongside a photo of the two of them.

“I posted this the morning after I was given my diagnosis,” she shared. “I won’t lie, the last few months have been a [whirlwind] but this little boy keeps me brave happy and my perspective always in check.”

Jessie J Reveals Cancer Diagnosis

Jessie first opened up about her diagnosis on June 3 via Instagram, explaining why she chose to speak out:

“I wanted to be transparent and share this. One reason is that, selfishly, I don’t discuss it enough. I’m not fully processing it because I’m so focused on work. I also recognize how much sharing has benefited me in the past, as it brought me love and support from others along with their own experiences. I’m an open book.”

Despite the challenges, she’s remained focused on the positives. “Cancer sucks in any form, but I’m holding on to the word ‘early.'”
