Nicky Newman’s husband has opened up on why the couple decided not to freeze her eggs before she tragically died of breast cancer. Much-loved influencer Nicky, who inspired the likes of Katie Price and Stacey Solomon, captured the hearts of social media users around the world when she started to document her health journey after being diagnosed with the disease at the age of 30.
Her heartbreaking story included her suffering a miscarriage and then being told she had incurable metastatic breast cancer within the space of a week. Sadly, Nicky died this week at the age of 35.
She wrote her own statement to let her fans know she had passed, which included her catchphrase, “GO GRAB LIFE”. Now her husband Alex has revealed why Nicky, a former broker administrator, chose not to freeze her eggs before she died.
The couple made the call after she started chemotherapy, the 37 year old told MailOnline.
He said: "We discussed it and we both said there was no point going ahead as it would mean any child we had would grow up without their mother and we didn’t want that. "We could have frozen Nicky’s eggs, but we came to the same conclusion, we wanted to be parents together or not at all." In her pre-written message announcing her death, released on Instagram earlier this week, Nicky said: "If you’re reading this it means I have died, I made it 5 & half years though, not bad for a stage 4 breastie ey.” She added: "And none of this ‘she fought her battle nonsense’, I didn’t lose anything, the cancer eventually took over & that’s okay, we all knew this would happen.
