Just three weeks after suffering a heart attack while training with his team, FC Porto, Iker Casillas’s wife Sara Carbonero has revealed the devastating news that she’s fighting ovarian cancer.

Axar.az reports citing Mirror.

The 35-year-old TV sports journalist made the shock announcement on Tuesday.

Carbonero and Casillas have been in a relationship since 2009 and were married seven years later, in March 2016.

“When we hadn’t yet recovered from one shock, life has surprised us again,” she wrote in an emotional post on social media, per the Mirror. “This time it’s me, that six-letter word I still struggle to write.

“A few days ago during a check-up, doctors described a malignant ovarian tumor and I have been operated on.”
