Vanessa Trump says she is ‘cancer-free’ six months after diagnosis
NBC News, the Daily Wire and BBC report that Vanessa Trump, the former wife of Donald Trump Jr., says she has beaten breast cancer. Trump, 48, made the announcement Friday in a short video posted by her daughter Kai Trump, 19, who hugged her mother afterward. "I am finally cancer-free," she said. The family framed the news around Breast Cancer Awareness Month and early detection, according to NBC News · Daily Wire.
The outlets differ on some details. Vanessa Trump has said doctors found the disease in April, and she went public in May. NBC News and the Daily Wire call the early step a procedure, while BBC says her post described surgery. BBC adds that she later had a lumpectomy and radiation, and that months of arm pain preceded the discovery of a pea-sized lump. It also says test results came back clear and that a longer video appeared Saturday on YouTube, whereas the Daily Wire described it as planned for the weekend. In it, the pair talk with Dr. Nicole Saphier, whom the Daily Wire identifies as President Donald Trump's surgeon general nominee and NBC News as a Fox News medical contributor.
