America’s Got Talent star Ray Singleton recently announced that his wife, Roslyn, lost her life to brain cancer. He revealed the news in an Instagram post:
“WELL DONE!! Our wife earned her wings yesterday while peacefully sleeping right at home where she wanted to be. This road ahead is going to be INCREDIBLY long & difficult!”
The post continued:
“She taught us all SOMETHING…She’s where we’re all trying to get one day so no need to be sad! Now we celebrate her legacy, her impact, her story & HER SPIRIT! She will LIVE FOREVER!! #LongLiveRos #F**kCancer”
Ray Singleton’s wife was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2013
Roslyn Singleton was diagnosed with stage three brain cancer a few years before she met Ray Singleton. She fought her first battle with cancer in 2013 and discovered that she has glioblastoma, a rare form of brain cancer that is uncommon among younger people.
She gained recognition after Ray posted a video where he was serenading Roslyn before she underwent surgery for her cancer. While the video went viral, the duo went on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2020.
The pair were given flowers and chocolate along with $25,000. Roslyn was a Navy veteran and according to a story about her treatment posted by Novant Health, she may have developed the problem after being exposed to toxic burn pits in Afghanistan.
While speaking to Novant Health, she thanked all those who were there for her and stated:
“Whenever there’s something going on in my life, God always puts the right people just right in front of me to make it a little easier.”
The couple’s battle with cancer was also posted on social media where Roslyn stated that the situation did not defeat her. Ray encouraged his followers on the post to celebrate and said:
“I understand that God has not only given me a gift, but he’s given all of us a gift. And I am responsible for taking care of that gift. So y’all, thank God for what this is.”
They also shared several pictures where they were singing, dancing, and laughing.
