Nicky had penned her own farewell statement ahead of her death.
Her husband shared it on their Instgram account.
The heartbreaking message read: “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. 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.”
Stacey Solomon lead tributes for Nicky today.
Stacey wrote: “Never has a star shone brighter. Absolutely heartbroken & devastated.
“Nicky thank you for everything…I’m so grateful to have known you. I promise to go grab life & make the most of every single second of every day.”
The influencer was transparent about her cancer journey.
Along with a lump in her right boob, the 30-year-old noticed that her nipple had inverted, the skin was dimpling and she had a rash on one side.
Nicky, from Guildford, Surrey, booked in to see her doctor but knew in her gut that it was going to be bad news.
“I didn’t need a doctor to tell me I had cancer, I already knew,” she said.
