Kate Middleton Announces Her Cancer is in Remission After Visiting Hospital Patients
One of TikTok’s sweetest souls has passed away.
Deborah Finck, who appeared in season one of Nanny 911, died Jan. 14 after a years-long battle with leiomyosarcoma, a rare soft tissue cancer. She was 57.
“Today, my heart is shattered as I share the news that my beloved wife, Deborah, has passed away,” her husband Paul Finck wrote in a Jan. 14 Instagram post. “After a brave and relentless five-year battle with cancer, she left this world peacefully, surrounded by love.”
“Deborah was my partner in every sense of the word—my confidant, my rock, the love of my life, and my eternal soulmate,” he continued. “Together, we built a life filled with love, laughter, and countless memories I will cherish forever.”
The TikToker, who candidly shared her health journey on social media, is survived by her loving husband as well as three sets of twins—Amanda and Alexandra, Stephen and Katerina, and David and Daniel.
“She poured her heart and soul into raising [our six children], instilling in them her values of kindness, integrity, and resilience,” Paul explained. “She was their greatest cheerleader, their guiding light, and their constant source of unconditional love. Her impact on their lives is immeasurable, and her legacy will live on through them.”
And the outpouring of love that Deborah showed her children was made undeniably apparent in her daughter Katerina’s social media tribute to her late mother.
“To my mommy, my best friend, my sunshine,” Katerina wrote on Instagram Jan. 14, alongside an old photo of the two, “thank you for everything you’ve done for me. You were the most beautiful mother and the best mommy anyone could ever ask for.”
“You taught me strength, courage, bravery, and what it means to truly love and never give up,” she continued. “You believed in me, stood by me, and showed me the meaning of unconditional love. You will always be remembered, never replaced. You were the sunshine of my life, and every time I see a sunflower, I will know you are here with me.”
And while she will live on through her children, Deborah took the time to dedicate a TikTok video to each of her kids in the two months before her death, hoping for the world to get to know her beautiful family. And as she gushed over her children in the heartbreaking videos, she was leaving them goodbye messages to look back on.
“Saying goodbye to your children is very hard,” she captioned her Dec. 28 TikTok dedicated to her youngest sons David and Daniel. “You never know when the last day is. I love u boys, always & forever.”
