OHMYGOSSIP — Demi Jones has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer.
The former ‘Love Island’ star had a potentially cancerous, “golf ball-sized” lump removed from her neck last month, but she now needs surgery to remove the rest of her thyroid following her diagnosis yesterday (20.05.21).
She wrote on her Instagram Stories: “Hi guys, I got my results today and unfortunately I have Thyroid cancer.
“The tumour has been removed but I’m now due to have more surgery to remove the rest of my Thyroid.
“I’m staying very positive and I’m a strong girl so I’ll be fine, thank you for your love and support always [heart emoji] I’ll bounce back stronger (sic)”
The 22-year-old star was inundated with well wishes from fans and fellow famous faces, including her former ‘Love Island’ co-star Shaughna Phillips.
She shared a video of herself telling Demi to put her game face on during their time in the villa, and she added the caption: “My sweet, gentle, beautiful girl, the same message I was giving you in the video applies today more than ever. Game face on my girl, you’ve got this
“I love you soooo much! And I am SO lucky to have you in my life (sic)”
Demi burst into tears upon seeing the post.
She replied: “I’m literally crying. I love you so much, so grateful to have you in my life (sic)”
Last month, the star took to social media from her hospital bed to reveal she was “very sleepy” and in pain following the successful procedure, which had left her with a “really swollen” face and neck.
She wrote: “Face and neck really swollen but the surgery went really well, the lump on my Thyroid was as big as a golf ball.
“The NHS Staff at QA Portsmouth have been unbelievable. And thank you for all your messages they have made me tearful (sic)”
