Katie Thurston Fears Cancer Has Reached Stage 4, Treatment Paused After Spots Found on Liver (2025)

Katie also documented the emotional portion of her I-SPY clinical trial where she received an Zoladex injection to reduce the size of tumors.

“Do I cry too much?” she said as she reflected on the needle used for the procedure. “Hyperventilating too much? Not brave enough? I’m here to stay as long as they’ll allow it.”

In additional to the clinical trial—that also includes multiple rounds of chemotherapy before surgery—Katie is doing IVF to freeze her eggs with the possibility of conceiving a child after her cancer treatment is complete.

The update comes days after Katie announced that she and Jeff Arcuri got married. The newlyweds shared the news alongside a picture of them holding hands as they walked down a street while looking back at the camera.

Katie captioned the sweet March 23 post, “We said “I do” on March twenty two.”

The duo’s intimate backyard ceremony was attended by their parents and adopted puppy Charlie, according to Us Weekly. The pair revealed they have plans to have a bigger ceremony next spring after Katie’s cancer treatments. However, the small ceremony was a token of Jeff’s love.

"It was this kind gesture of him saying, truly, in sickness and in health," she toldUs Weeklyabout their nuptials. "He is proving that he’s here to stay. He shows up every day and he does it in ways that just continue to surprise."
