star Leanne has shared that her partner is free of cancer after battling a grade 3 diagnosis. The former army veteran shares two-year-old twin boys with fiancee Sophie Jones.
Leanne has spoken of her relief that her partner has defeated the illness and took to with a heartfelt post. She penned: “This is the only news we needed and wanted.
“On the 31st July 2024 my partner, and the mother of my children was diagnosed with grade 3 breast cancer. Watching the person you love fight through chemotherapy is up there with the worst things on earth.
“We quickly learnt to never take anything for granted ever again, and sadly had to learn that tomorrow is never promised and fear of the unknown literally killed us inside.
“Yesterday, Wednesday 8th January 2025, the strongest woman on planet earth was told she is cancer free. She did it. I cannot express or put in to words how proud I am, and how in awe I am of her strength every single day. Today we begin to truly celebrate us, our boys, and the excitement of the rest of our lives.”

“I could never thank the NHS enough for quite literally saving my whole family. And the biggest thank you to our support system, we’re so lucky to be surrounded by the most incredible family and friends.
“For anybody fighting, or for anybody watching their loved ones fight this horrible disease. I see you and I feel you. Please don’t give up.”
Traitors host Claudia Winkleman posted three red hearts in the comments section whilst the charity Breast Cancer Now said: “This is such brilliant news. It must have been such a difficult time for your family. We’re here if you or your partner need any support.”

A month after Sophie’s cancer diagnosis, Leanne and Sophie tied the knot. Their sons Hudson and Harley were both born in January 2023, but had to spend months in intensive care after being born prematurely.
Leanne has previously said that if she walked away with any prize money from The Traitors, she would use it for her family.
“I would love to go through IVF again. I went through IVF with my boys, and I was very poorly throughout my pregnancy, and then I went into early labour at six months,” she said, according to Metro.
“The boys were only 26 weeks when they were born. Because I was so poorly at the time I feel I missed out on enjoying that newborn stage. I’m so so grateful to have them, and I’m so lucky that they’re alive.”
