Steps star Faye Tozer has shared the heartbreaking news her mum has died. The singer, known for being one-fifth of the much-loved pop group, has been flooded with support after she told her social media followers that her beloved mum passed away last month.
Last July, Faye told how Dorothy had been diagnosed with lung cancer, after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019. She said her mum was told in December 2020 by doctors that she had cancer on her lungs following a scan after suffering with respiratory problems.
Last year, mother and daughter shared the devastating health diagnosis with OK! magazine, with Dorothy explaining that medical professionals discovered growing cancer on the left lung, then a smaller, different cancer on the right lung. In March 2021, Dorothy had an operation to remove the cancer in the left lung and last week she underwent CyberKnife treatment, a robotic radiotherapy procedure, to help the right lung.
