Jessie J has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
The singer, 37, announced via Instagram on Tuesday, June 3, that she received the news prior to the April 25 release of her track “No Secrets.”
“I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. I’m highlighting the word early. Cancer sucks in any form but I’m holding onto the word early,” Jessie told fans in the social media video. “I have been in and out of tests throughout this whole period. I just wanted to be open and share it. One, because, selfishly, I do not talk about it enough. I’m not processing it because I’m working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories. I’m an open book.”
The “Price Tag” singer also captioned the video with a lighthearted albeit emotional summary. “No (more) Secrets and is it too soon to do a remix called ‘Living my breast life’? 
,” Jessie wrote. “All jokes aside (You know it’s one of the ways I get through hard times) This last 2 months have been so amazing, and having this go on alongside it on the sidelines has given me the most incredible perspective. BUT… Your girl needs a hug.

Jessie, who is mother to son, Sky, 2, whom she shares with boyfriend Chanan Colman, added a final line that nodded to her trademark humor. “Also not getting massive tits. Or am I? No no… I must stop joking,” she wrote.

Posting an Instagram video of herself singing on stage when she was younger, she explained that bringing her child into the world “exposed” her disorders “a lot more,” Jessie also noted that the diagnoses proved “comforting” as she leaned into motherhood. “It made it feel less heavy and scary,” Jessie captioned the post.
“But also in moments has made me feel like I can’t talk about it. F*** that. Here I am talking about it. Embracing it,” she added, admitting that she has felt “different” over the course of her life and career.

“ADHD has such a wide spectrum, it’s like a mystery putting your version of it together, that’s how it’s felt for me,” Jessie continued, further explaining that she was able to understand how “to cope, excel and grow” with her newfound conditions.
Jessie welcomed her son into the world after suffering a heartbreaking miscarriage in November 2021 and spoke about how she had planned on raising the child on her own.
She addressed the miscarriage during a May 2022 appearance on the “Diary of a CEO With Steven Bartlett” podcast. “I remember just going home and not processing it,” Jessie said during the episode. “I posted it [on social media] because I didn’t have anyone there to break on. I didn’t have anyone to just fall apart on, and that’s what I needed. That’s what I wanted.”
Jessie continued, “It was just the saddest thing, but at the same time, I knew that the reason it happened was because I wasn’t supposed to do it alone.”
