Reality TV star and model Faith Morey has recently made a significant revelation regarding her health, sharing that she was diagnosed with cancer approximately four to five years ago. This disclosure occurred during her appearance on the "Tea With Tay" podcast, a moment that has since garnered considerable attention, with a video of the discussion going viral. Morey explained that this diagnosis was a private battle, unknown to most people at the time, and served as a profound turning point in her life, compelling her to reevaluate her path and the legacy she wished to leave.

At the time of her diagnosis, Morey described herself as living a quiet life on a ranch, a period where she felt she had become complacent and put her aspirations on hold. "We were living in a ranch, that’s why I said I’m a country girl by heart," she shared, adding, "And I would say transitioning, I just wanted to spend as much time as I wish I had with my kid. And when it changed for me was about 4-5 years ago when I went to the doctor and he told me that I have cancer." She admitted, "At that time, I knew I had put my dream on hold. I was no more that Faith, I was too relaxed on a ranch because I had lived and I thought that was it."

Upon receiving the news, Morey's primary concern was her son and the memories and legacy she would leave for him. "I remember just looking at him and all I thought about was what will people tell my child — not the day I was buried — but what will be the legacy I’ve left that my son would remember and people around him would tell him about his mum," she recounted. This life-altering experience prompted her to make a solemn vow. "I told God that if I go through this and I come out alive, I would never play small," she stated, highlighting her renewed determination to pursue her ambitions fully.

Faith Morey initially rose to prominence through her participation in the reality show "Real Housewives of Lagos" (RHOL) and has also established a career in modeling and fashion. She is a mother to one son from her previous marriage to American Randy Morey. The revelation on the podcast also touched upon other aspects of her public life, including addressing an alleged relationship with music executive Paulo, who is also linked with actress Iyabo Ojo.

Her candidness about her health struggles has evoked a strong emotional response from many, particularly fans and well-wishers in Nigeria. Numerous comments expressed support, prayers, and admiration for her strength. This is set against a backdrop of a public persona that has sometimes been involved in online exchanges, such as a noted disagreement with Iyabo Ojo. However, the focus of her recent disclosure remains the profound personal impact of her cancer diagnosis and her subsequent decision to live life more fully and authentically.
