UK’s leading fashion influencer, Lorna Luxe, has shared that her husband had organ failure, which was caused by complications from chemotherapy. John Andrews, 64, is currently battling stage four adrenal cancer.
According to the Daily Mail’s report, John was first diagnosed with stage three adrenal cancer in April 2023. The following year, he went into cancer remission.
However, in May 2024, the influencer shared that her husband’s cancer had come back. This time, it also spread to his brain.
John’s treatment has been ongoing since then. Earlier this year, he was hospitalized for a month, and in August, he underwent surgery to remove the cancer.
While the disease shrank, doctors shared that it spread to John’s lymph nodes, and he needed more chemotherapy.
Lorna Luxe’s recent emergency health update stated that when she was on a work trip to New York, her husband had an extreme migraine and had to be hospitalized.
The fashion content creator shared on Instagram stories that she left the trip halfway and returned to John. Doctors informed her that a 4cm tumor was found in his brain.
Andrews had the surgery on Monday (December 15) and is currently recovering.
Lorna uploaded a video of them kissing on Instagram on Friday, and in the caption, she stated that she wanted to keep her husband’s health complications private.
However, John told her to let her followers know. She also shared that the intensive care team told her to prepare for the worst when he underwent surgery.
