A TikTok star who shared her life on the social media platform TikTok after being diagnosed with stage IIIC ovarian cancer eight years ago has lost her battle against the disease.

Haley Odlozil, 30, passed away earlier this week. The news was shared by her heartbroken husband, Taylor, who would often appear in her videos.

Taylor spoke of the immense grief and sorrow he and his entire family felt after the untimely death of his wife.

Taylor described Haley’s relentless struggle to live and talked about the deep love she had for him, their son Weston, her family and friends, which ultimately fueled her determination to live.

“It is with incredible sadness that I tell you all that my dear Haley has passed away. I cannot begin to describe the amount of heartbreak and sadness that myself and our entire family are experiencing,” he wrote in an online statement.

Heartbreaking news was shared by her husband, Taylor, who regularly appeared in their viral videos alongside their son, Weston, four

The couple had been together since their high school years in 2008 and received the devastating news of Haley’s terminal cancer diagnosis shortly before their wedding in 2015.

“I didn’t know my heart could hurt physically. I’ve never seen anyone fight so hard to live. Her love for me, Weston, her family and her friends has kept her going for so many years especially the last 8 months.

“I am so blessed that Haley has been a part of my life for 16 years. I was truly honored to care for her,” Taylor wrote.

Taylor shared his deep gratitude for having Haley as a part of his life for the past 16 years.

The TikTok captions always include the date of the video, along with the perpetually reassuring message that “Haley is still fighting.”

The updates drew the support of millions of followers who closely followed Haley’s cancer journey.

In a shocking video recorded in May, Haley’s hospice nurse presented her infant son with a Build-A-Bear stuffed animal with a recording of Haley’s heartbeat.

Haley shared how Weston would refer to the stuffed animal as his “mommy bear” and found comfort in cuddling it before bed.

“If you can’t see mom or feel mom, where am I?” Hayley asked, to which Weston replied, “In my heart.”

The hospice also gave Taylor a framed copy of the heartbeat recording.

After Hayley’s death, Taylor stated that he and his son will be taking an indefinite hiatus from social media to give themselves time to grieve.

“I need some time to process with my son,” he wrote.
