Heart’s Ann Wilson has revealed that she has finished her chemotherapy.

About three months ago, the band announced that they were postponing their tour so that Wilson could undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy following a cancer diagnosis.

The 74-year-old musician recently shared an audio message in which she said: “Hello, everybody. Ann Wilson here. Now I know lots of you have been wondering how I’ve been doing, so I thought it’d be best if you heard this straight from me.”

“I’m doing absolutely fine now, but it’s been, to put it mildly, a lot. Chemo is no joke. It takes a lot out of a person. And then there’s that two weeks of waiting around for test results, a form of mental torture,” she continued. “For anyone who’s been through that, I empathize big time. Luckily for me, when the results finally came, they were the good kind, and so I’m excited to share with you that I’m now finished with chemo and I’m officially ready to get ready for the tour in 2025.”

“There’s maintenance going forward, but I’m told the side effects are much less severe. The worst is over and I’m thankful for the efficacy of this poison, but it’s more than welcome to get the fuck out of my body now,” Wilson added.

“I’m immensely grateful to everyone who prayed and sent me those good vibes,” she concluded. “I’ve so felt your love. My story has a happy ending, due in part to early detection. My advice? Get checked regularly. I love you all, and I’ll see you very, very soon. There’s much to celebrate.”

Meanwhile, the band recently announced rescheduled 2025 Royal Flush Tour dates, which now kick off in late February and conclude in April.
