Guerdy revealed in an Instagram post in May 2023 that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. “In March, I found out some news about my health. I was in St. Barts having the time of my life when my doctor called me with results following a regular mammogram checkup,” she said. “I have breast cancer. It took me a while to process it all and this is why I took a break from social media last month as many noticed. Many of you reached out to check on me and I am thankful for your caring gestures.”

She continued, “For now I am preparing for my upcoming surgery and then will come my treatment plan. This process is definitely intense and what I ask of yuo is empowerment not pity. I will ‘guerdyfy’ this cancer as I guerdyfy everything else in my life. I am lucky that this breast cancer was discovered at an early stage. It is still scary of course, but I have love and support from those around me and that alone is the fuel that I need. For those who do not get health checks regularly, I urge you to. Your life depends on it.”

Guerdy’s cancer journey played out on Season 6 of The Real Housewives of Miami. But where is her health now? Read on for if Guerdy still has cancer from The Real Housewives of Miami and where she is in her health journey.

Does Guerdy still have cancer from The Real Housewives of Miami?

Does Guerdy still have cancer from The Real Housewives of Miami? The answer is no. Guerdy Abraira revealed at The Real Housewives of Miami at BravoCon 2023 in November that she was cancer-free. “I’m cancer-free officially! I’m about to the ring the radiation bell on Wednesday. I’m a little itchy down here, but we made it work. I’m very excited. I’m so blessed. I literally wake up every morning counting my blessings and making it count. Remember that: Make it count,” she said.

Guerdy also People at the time that BravoCon was her “final hooray at the end of the tunnel.” “I have two more radiation rounds,” she said. “So like getting into these rooms [at BravoCon], meeting the fans and them saying ‘You are that hero’ — or she-ro — it’s incredible.”

Guerdy revealed that she learned she was cancer-free while “living it up in” in St. Barts on vacation and started “sobbing” when she received the good news. “That’s what life is. It’s ups and downs,” she said. “You never know when you’re gonna go down and you never know when you’re gonna go up. And today is my up day. My up life is now, back to normal-ish. And I wanna keep it that way.”

She also credited her husband, Russell Abraira, for caring for her throughout her cancer journey. “I just don’t even know how he did it because no one saw it coming and here comes cancer knocking at your door, and you don’t know if you’re going to make it,” she said. “He’s the best caretaker that I could have asked for. And not only that, but he’s also very good-looking.”

She continued, “He was a good nurse. But, you know, it really shows how nothing matters in life except for family and love and support and your health.”

During The Real Housewives of Miami panel at BravoCon, Guerdy also explained why she wanted to show her cancer journey on reality TV. “I was told I know I was going to be treated and I’ll be OK eventually but we were gonna go through a hard time. And to me, I said to myself, ‘If I can show the good and the bad, then it’s only better,’” she said.

She continued, “A lot of people with cancer, they feel like they have the plague and they don’t want to share and they feel like something’s wrong with them and they go into hiding. And I said to myself, ‘I’m not doing that. I’m not going out like that.’”
