Vanessa Trump, 48, the former wife of Donald Trump Jr., has shared a deeply personal update on her ongoing fight against breast cancer — revealing she is now recovering after undergoing surgery and preparing for the next stage of treatment.
The mother of five was diagnosed in May, a moment she previously described as “something no one ever expects,” as she quietly began working closely with her medical team on a treatment plan.
Now, in a new message shared over the weekend, Vanessa opened up about the difficult weeks she has endured since her operation.
“I’ve been recovering from surgery over the past four weeks,” she said. “I’m grateful to be healing and moving forward. Soon, I’ll be starting the second stage of my treatment.”
Despite the emotional and physical toll, her tone remained steady and hopeful, as she added a message of solidarity for others facing similar battles: “Sending love, strength, and hope to everyone fighting this battle.”
A PRIVATE FIGHT PLAYING OUT IN PUBLIC 💔
Vanessa’s diagnosis first became public in May when she revealed she was focusing on treatment while staying surrounded by her children and close family.
She and Donald Trump Jr., who were married from 2005 to 2018, share five children — Kai, Donald III, Chloe, Tristan, and Spencer — who she has often described as her greatest source of strength during this challenging chapter.
At the time of her diagnosis, she wrote that she was “staying focused and hopeful,” while leaning heavily on her medical team and loved ones for support.:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(993x153:995x155)/vanessa-haydon-tiger-woods-donald-trump-jr-main-split-032725-f72eb663a6b4463d85cfa5ac8992efbd.jpg)
