“Results are in and I am cancer-free!” Cornish posted on Instagram.
“I sobbed for hours and then exhaled for the first time in a year.”
The Price Tag singer first revealed in June last year she was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer.
Since announcing her diagnosis, Cornish has been praised for her willingness to share personal details about her journey.
The British pop star has been candid about the challenges of navigating motherhood and her career, while also battling cancer.
Shortly after her diagnosis, the singer underwent a mastectomy.
“I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. Cancer sucks in any form, but I’m holding on to the word ‘early’,” she told fans at the time.
“It’s a very dramatic way to get a boob job.
“I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive t**s and more music.”
In August, Cornish said she had to undergo a second operation and postponed an upcoming tour.
The singer-songwriter returned to the stage in September at BBC Radio 2 in the Park in Chelmsford.
“Since I was young, so many things have happened to me. I’ve always had obscure health issues that doctors can’t figure out,” she told Women’s Health UK.
“Nothing has broken me.”
In her recent video, Cornish shared the news she was cancer-free after having an MRI and an annual check-up.
Celebrity friends and fans shared their relief, saying this was the “best news ever”.
