Jessie J says she went into ‘survival mode’ after cancer diagnosis as she shares regret

Singer Jessie J has shared an emotional update as she continues to recover from breast cancer surgery. The Price Tag singer announced in June that she had been diagnosed with early breast cancer and that she would be undergoing treatment.

The artist, whose real name is Jessica Cornish, and her partner Chanan Safir Colman, had a son, Sky Safir Cornish Colman, in May 2023. In a message to fans shortly after having her operation, the former Voice UK judge admitted she was missing being “an active mum/human.”

On Saturday, Jessie took to her Instagram Stories to reflect on her diagnosis two weeks on from surgery. “2 weeks post surgery. Had my drain out 2 nights ago. She said breathe in and take a hard breathe out. She whipped that thang out so quick. Woii oii. Weirdest feeling. But so nice to have it out after 12 days,” she wrote.

“Now it’s just me and my wonky boobs trying to figure out how to dress until I match them up. The left one is looking at me like ‘you ok babe?’ Also my experience was when I was diagnosed I went into survival mode.

‘There was so much going on with appointments and in my mind esp with a toddler I had just moved and was about to start this campaign after 8 years away. Mad.

“I didn’t really have a lot of time to process what was happening or what was going to happen. So I’m currently experiencing some delayed sadness and frustration by having time to process what IS happening.”

Jessie continued: “A little disappointed in myself I didn’t say goodbye to my old boob enough. Sounds silly but that’s where I’m at. Again that’s my journey. I’m sure others feel different.

“But for me I didn’t think beyond the surgery. I was just being strong. Well now I’m here and letting myself be angry and sad and all the things. Just for a few days. Then I will sew some padding in a bra to even them out order some t-shirts and crack tf on.”

Last month, the mum-of-one revealed she had stopped taking pain medication, saying it is “just not my thing”. A social media update from the star featured a picture of Jessie’s wound drain, a tube which helps remove excess fluid or blood that can accumulate after surgery.

She asked her followers: “Anyone else who has had this, did you feel like you are walking around one of those dog / duck toys. I carry mine on the floor when I’m home so the gravity can help the drain. Hoping it’s out by the end of the week.”

The artist has battled with ill health throughout her life, having been diagnosed with a heart condition aged eight, suffering a minor stroke aged 18 and having briefly gone deaf in 2020.

The Domino singer said she is “feeling positive and grateful”, and asked fans not to worry if she “seems a little out of it” in public.

“If you do see me out, sitting in a park or coming out of a doctor’s appointment or eating or walking or anything, and I seem a little out of it. I am,” Jessie said. “It’s not personal. I don’t have what I usually have to give energy wise, understandably. I will get there. It’s a slow road.”
