Kapamilya actress and social media sensation Ivana Alawi has officially debunked rumors circulating online about her being diagnosed with cancer. The stunning actress and YouTube vlogger recently sat down with the media to address the speculation, assuring fans that she is perfectly healthy and that the reports were nothing more than baseless gossip.

Ivana Alawi Clarifies the Truth Behind the Rumors

For weeks, social media had been abuzz with shocking claims that Ivana was suffering from a severe illness. The rumors spread rapidly, causing concern among her loyal followers. However, in her latest public appearance earlier this month, the actress put an end to all speculations.

“Actually, ito lang nung last week nagkatrangkaso kasi sunod-sunod talaga ‘yung trabaho. Pero so far, ‘yun palang and [I’m] much, much better na and medyo lumusog ako ng very light kasi nga dahil dun sa tubig and all that,” Ivana explained, reassuring everyone that she had simply caught the flu due to her hectic schedule.

No History of Cancer in Her Family

The actress further emphasized that her family has no history of cancer, making the false reports even more unfounded. “Now, it’s getting much better at walang katotohanan ‘yung magkaka-cancer ako. Hindi ‘yun true. Wag kayong mag-alala, wala kami nun sa lahi,” she expressed, urging fans not to believe in misleading news.

Despite her calm response, Ivana admitted that the rumors did cause unnecessary distress, especially for her mother. “Yung mama ko nga nag-alala dun tapos inaano niya ako. Sabi ko, mama kalma. Wala tayo niyan, walang mangyayari sa atin,” she shared, revealing how her mother was initially worried after coming across the false reports.

Ivana’s Thoughts on Life and Death

Interestingly, Ivana also touched on a deeper topic—the idea of mortality. While some may fear discussions about death, the actress stated that it is something she has come to accept.

“Wala naman makakapag-predict kung kelan ka mawawala, and it’s not something you should be scared of kasi lahat naman tayo darating dun. Ang nakakaalam lang ay ang Diyos,” she said, showing her calm and philosophical approach to life.

Previous Health Scare and Recovery

While Ivana Alawi is now in good health, she did face a challenging period when she was hospitalized due to excess fluid in her stomach. In a heartfelt vlog, she shared her terrifying experience, describing how she struggled to breathe and feared the worst.

“Feeling ko kada hinga ko para akong nalulunod, tapos sumisigaw na ako na hindi ko na kaya. I felt like the liquid was already getting to my lungs, tapos parang sabi ko ‘butasan niyo na ako’,” she recalled. The actress also admitted she was hesitant to undergo any procedures due to her fear of scars, making the situation even more overwhelming for her.

Fortunately, she has since recovered and returned to her normal activities, much to the relief of her fans.

A Message to Her Supporters

With her usual positive energy, Ivana Alawi encouraged her fans to be more discerning about the news they see online and not to believe everything they read on social media. She also thanked everyone for their concern and reassured them once again that she is doing perfectly fine.

As one of the most beloved actresses and influencers in the Philippines, Ivana continues to shine, proving that rumors and negativity won’t shake her confidence or her unwavering spirit.

For now, fans can rest easy knowing that their favorite star is happy, healthy, and ready to take on more exciting projects. Stay tuned for more updates on Ivana Alawi’s journey!
