4 weeks ago 1

Colleen Hoover, the bestselling author behind It Ends With Us and a string of wildly popular romance and thriller novels, is opening up about a personal chapter of her life and is doing so with the honesty and humor that have endeared her to millions of readers.

On Monday, Hoover revealed on her Instagram Stories that she is currently undergoing cancer treatment. The post featured a photo of the author wearing black sweatpants beneath a teal hospital gown, paired with an upbeat update.

“Second to last day of radiation!” Hoover wrote.

She followed the news with her trademark humor, adding, “I wish I could blame my hair and facial expressions on @texas.oncology but they’ve been great. Hope you never need them, but highly recommend them.”

The update comes months after Hoover quietly stepped away from a major professional moment.
