Victoria Cipriani, the ex-wife of former rugby player Danny Cipriani, has revealed she has been secretly battling cancer since March. She shared on Instagram that she is preparing to undergo surgery after completing her initial treatment.
Cipriani, who divorced Danny Cipriani three years after their 2021 marriage, described her experience with the illness in a lengthy post. She noted the familiarity she developed with hospital staff and corridors over the eight months of treatment, which she said had left her feeling unwell on some days.
She also addressed speculation about her health and appearance, refuting claims that she was using weight loss drugs. Cipriani stated that she has learned a great deal about herself during this period, comparing the experience to a difficult but profound education. She expressed gratitude for the friends who have supported her, acknowledging the silence from others.
Victoria Cipriani declined to name her illness, stating that it had already received enough attention. She filed for divorce from Danny Cipriani in August 2024, citing financial issues and alleged infidelity. Danny Cipriani has since remarried.
