Taylor Swift Reveals Her Mom Is Facing Cancer Again: ‘I Give All of My Worry to Real Problems Now’
Taylor Swift shared in a March 2019 essay for Elle that her mother, Andrea Swift, was facing a recurrence of cancer. Swift explained that the diagnosis changed her perspective, writing that she now reserves her stress and worry exclusively for real-life hardships.
Four years after first revealing to fans her mom was diagnosed with cancer, Taylor Swift shared on Wednesday that Andrea is once again facing the disease.
I’ve had to learn how to handle serious illness in my family. Both of my parents have had cancer, and my mom is now fighting her battle with it again,” the Grammy winner, 29, wrote in a personal essay for Elle about 30 lessons she’s learned in her life so far.
“It’s taught me that there are real problems and then there’s everything else,” she continued. “My mom’s cancer is a real problem. I used to be so anxious about daily ups and downs. I give all of my worry, stress, and prayers to real problems now.”
