Jessie J’s second cancer reconstruction surgery “went well” and she is doing “OK”.
Jessie J’s second cancer reconstruction surgery “went well”.
The 38-year-old singer – who has three-year-old son Sky with former partner Chanan Safir – underwent a mastectomy after being diagnosed with breast cancer in early 2025 and after recently going under the knife again, she wanted to reassure fans she is on the mend.
She said in a video shared to her Instagram Story: “I just got home from my second surgery and all went well, so I just wanted to let you know that I’m OK.”
Jessie celebrated the news her upcoming London concert has sold out and added: “Yeah man, life is good. Sending love. Good energy. See you soon.”
The Price Tag hitmaker announced earlier this month she was stepping back from social media to “recharge” ahead of the operation.
In an emotional Instagram post, she wrote: “I want to start this post off by saying I am ok. I am not at my best but very far from my worst. I know people can twist these kinds of posts.
“It’s no secret that the last 2 years have been magical, successful, life changing and extremely busy.
“I have loved the last 2 years mostly, hated it in moments and learnt the most I have ever learnt about myself and what I want from my life and mostly what I want it to FEEL like.
“To name a few things that have happened in the last 2 years…
“1. Put out an album for the first time in 8 years
“2. Moved country (US to [UK])
“3. Being diagnosed and beating breast cancer
“4. Touring the world
“5. Going through a breakup
“6. Raising a toddler
“7. Doing my own socials, styling, hair + makeup everyday.”
She pointed out that the past 24 months have “taken a toll” on her, noting “it wouldn’t be weird if it hadn’t”, but she simply hasn’t “had time to give space and grace” to the parts of her that need it.
She continued: “Now’s the time. Work has slowed down. So healing speeds up please.
“So I’m tapping out of this [online world] for a while and into my real one. To give my mind, body and heart a well needed hug.
“To finally have my second cancer reconstruction surgery, to recharge, heal, to rest, to process, to love on myself and my boy, to water the next chapter of my life and most importantly be present and really live.
“I never feel I can really give that side the energy and time it deserves when it’s needed while staying on socials and my phone so much.”
