At the recent Summertime Ball, Jessie captivated the 80,000 attendees revealing that the performance would mark her last before undergoing surgery. During her set, she announced: "Today, this show is my last show before I go to beat breast cancer! So it's so special to me you have no idea. I feel so special to be from the UK, to be an honest person and say how you feel.
"This is my last show before go treatment and all the things. It's the most special thing and I'm so grateful for this life, for you guys, for my career, to my, my son. My partner, my parents. My family, my band, my crew."
She continued by saying: "We are so lucky, we have so much to live for, so much joy, so much, so many things to do."
Jessie shared the news of her diagnosis with her fans in a heartfelt video on 3 June, stating: "I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding on to the word 'early'."
In her usual candid style, she quipped: "It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job. I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive tits and more music. I just wanted to be open and share it."
Jessie also expressed how important sharing was to her: "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. It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse-that's the bit that kills me.. The timing of it has been mad but also beautiful and given me this incredible perspective in this time. But honestly I need to process it and talk about it and, I need a hug. You have loved me through all my good and hard times. And I don't want this to be any different."

Tasha Ghouri gives update on love life as she rules out dating shows

Strictly Come Dancing star Tasha Ghouri has revealed whether she would be open for a stint on Love Island All Stars or Celebs Go Dating after her split from Andrew Le Page Former Love Island star Tasha Ghouri has shared whether she'd be open to more celebrity dating shows. It comes following the news earlier this year that she had separated from Andrew Le Page, who she met on the ITV2 show. Talking about doing a presenting course at the TRIC Awards in London tonight, Strictly Come Dancing star Tasha, 26, said she'd rather focus on that side of her career. "It's not for me personally," Tasha said about the possibility of seeing her on Love Island: All Stars or Celebs Go Dating. ‌ She added: "I know people find love on these shows but my dating shows are closed. I'm going down a different path now. It's something I'm really passionate about. I'm happily single but I'm open to love. I'd love a family." ‌ Tasha rose to fame on Love Island in 2022, where she found love with former partner Andrew, now 30. The former couple, who reached the final of the show, later split after more than two and a half years together. The reality TV star was the first deaf contestant on the show and uses a cochlear implant to help her hear. She was born deaf and received the implant, which is a small electronic device, when she was five years old. Talking about her meteoric rise since the ITV2 show, she shared how she deals with the stress. "The past few years have been a whirlwind," she admits. "Sometimes I listen to music, other times I take my cochlear out and enjoy the silence. I'm very lucky to have that, it's a beautiful thing." The self confessed adrenaline junkie says she got something wild she needs to tick off her bucket list though. "I want to try ski diving," she said excitedly whilst at the awards ceremony. "I'd love to throw myself out of a plane." Tasha's comments at the TRIC Awards tonight come after a previous update on her personal life whilst at the BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises last month. She spoke to the Mirror on the red carpet of the event in May. ‌ At the time, Tasha told us that she was "doing okay" when asked about her split from Andrew. She shared whilst on the red carpet of that event just over a month ago: "You know, break ups aren't easy for anybody to go through." She went on to say that she looks back on the relationship in a positive way. Tasha said: "I had a great two and a half years with Andrew. I look back with a positive smile on my face because we had great memories together." ‌ Tasha further commented whilst a guest at the BAFTAs: "Sometimes it just doesn't work out and that's all that happened and I wish him the best. I'm just moving forward now." She said at the time that her "dating book is closed for now" and dismissed the prospect of doing a show like Celebs Go Dating. Instead, she said on the red carpet last month that her focus was on herself for the time being.
