Former Bachelorette Katie Thurston shared a hopeful update amid her battle with breast cancer.
Thurston previously revealed that she was forced to postpone a scheduled double mastectomy late last year due to issues with her kidney. Now, the 35-year-old is preparing to go under the knife once again.
"I have surgery scheduled April 29 for the removal of both my breasts (DMX). This surgery was already rescheduled once and I won't delay it again," she shared via Instagram on Friday, March 20. "Because of the timing of my medication break and liver recovery and the date of my surgery which also requires pausing Kisqali, I'll continue to pause treatment for another two months. My hormone suppression (lupron/letrozole) does a lot of the heavy lifting in my cancer treatment and won't be paused. Removing the tumor will also be beneficial to fight against cancer."
Thurston added that she is going to give herself a social media break to clear her mind and reset her mental and physical health.

I'm OK. I'm going to be OK. Just need a reset. And in case any of those bot accounts announce I'm [dead], I am not."
Thurston was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer in February 2025 and has been undergoing treatment for more than a year.
During a fan Q&A in December, Thurston was asked whether she feared dying.
"I’m more scared of not living while alive," she said simply. "Death will come when it’s going to come. So I want to enjoy my moments until then.:
