Katie Thurston cancer update liver enzymes

Katie Thurston has some encouraging news to share amid her ongoing breast cancer treatment.

On Monday, June 8, the Bachelorette alum posted an update to her Boobie Broadcast channel, where she’s been documenting her journey since being diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that metastasized to her liver.

“Liver update: no evidence of disease!!” she wrote.

“PET scan will be at the end of the month… I don’t really know what to expect. I don’t believe there were clear margins with my DMX and only two lymph nodes were removed. But also, what they did remove, it showed great response to treatment.”

“So I can only hope that whatever is possibly left hanging around is stable or shrinking,” she added.

While Katie is understandably celebrating the news that there is currently no evidence of disease in her liver, she’s not completely out of the woods just yet.

She still has elevated enzyme levels, which doctors will continue to monitor. 

Additionally, her upcoming PET scan is expected to provide more clarity on the current status of her cancer.

ICYMI: Katie publicly revealed her breast cancer diagnosis in February 2025. In April 2026, she underwent a double mastectomy with reconstruction.

Since sharing her diagnosis, Katie has used her platform to document her treatment journey while encouraging others to live fully and remain hopeful in the face of difficult circumstances.

Speaking with PEOPLE at the time, Katie said:

“I refuse to call it a terminal illness. No one is promised tomorrow. Why waste the days I’ve been given stressing about death?”

For Bachelor Nation fans, we’ll continue to keep you updated on Katie’s journey.

Taste Buds, join us in sending Katie all the positive and healing vibes as she awaits her next scan.
