‘I’m not going anywhere right now’ – Doherty
In a podcast published on 25 June, Doherty shared some details about her ongoing fight against breast cancer. She announced that she is going to resume chemotherapy treatment.
After talking about the way the media published every detail about her divorce from Kurt Iswarienko, Doherty said “I’m praying for the best and tell you I’m not going anywhere right now”.
“Speaking about the divorce, she said she keeps asking herself why because she’s in the public eye and choose to share certain things on her podcast, the detail about her life is out there for everyone. “[It happens] even before I choose to share it. I don’t understand why people can’t get divorced. I’ve never looked up somebody’s divorce because I just feel like it’s none of my business.
“So, you know, that’s been exhausting because obviously divorce is not easy, especially when you really love someone. And I did love my husband. And when you get so hurt by their actions that you just feel betrayed and like a sucker, it’s really hard.”
She then went on to discuss having stage four cancer. It’s scary. It’s like a big wake up call, she said.
“At the same time, I have to say that there is some positivity here. The molecular structure of my cancer cells changed recently. It means that there’s a lot more protocols for me to try.”
She concluded by saying that she loves her fans. “Thank you so much. Thank you for listening to me.”
Sadly, Doherty passed away on Saturday, 13 July.
