Tue Mar 25 16:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Bachelorette Star Katie Thurston’s Cancer Treatment Paused After Liver Spots Discovered
**New York, NY** – Katie Thurston, former star of “The Bachelorette,” has announced a pause in her breast cancer treatment after the discovery of suspicious spots on her liver. The 34-year-old revealed the news on her Instagram Stories and during a live broadcast, stating that a liver biopsy is scheduled this week to determine if the spots are cancerous. Her doctor suspects the lesions may indicate stage 4 metastatic disease.
Thurston, who recently married comedian Jeff Arcuri in a private ceremony, shared her emotional journey with her followers, detailing the Zoladex injection she received as part of an I-SPY clinical trial. She also expressed her concerns about her emotional responses to treatment. Despite the setback, Thurston remains determined to fight her illness, stating, “I’m here to stay as long as they’ll allow it.”
The couple’s quickie wedding, which took place just days before the concerning news, was described by Thurston as a sweet and intimate affair spurred by a desire to affirm their love amidst uncertainty. Her husband previously spoke to Us Weekly about how Thurston’s diagnosis strengthened their bond, prompting them to accelerate their wedding plans.
Thurston initially revealed her stage 3 breast cancer diagnosis in mid-February and has been openly documenting her experience on social media. Further updates are expected following her liver biopsy.
