Boxer Georgia O'Connor Dead at 25, 2 Weeks After Wedding
Georgia O'Connor, a professional boxer, died at 25 just two weeks after getting married and months after her cancer diagnosis
Professional boxer Georgia OâConnor has died at age 25, just months after doctors diagnosed her with cancer and two weeks after she married her longtime boyfriend.
Pro boxing promoter Boxxer confirmed her death in a statement to The Guardian on Thursday, May 22.
âWe are heartbroken by the passing of Georgia OâConnor,â the statement read. âA true warrior inside and outside the ring, the boxing community has lost a talented, courageous and determined young woman far too soon.â
âGeorgia was loved, respected and admired by her friends here at Boxxer,â the statement continued. âOur thoughts are with her loved ones at this difficult time.â
OâConnor announced via Instagram on May 12 that she and boyfriend Adriano Cardinali had gotten married, writing, â09.05.2025.The day I married the love of my life. ????.â She wrote the caption alongside a photo of the couplesâ hands with rings fully in view.
In January, OâConnor revealed that she had been diagnosed with cancer after she claims doctors ignored her symptoms, including debilitating pain, for months.
âFor 17 weeks since the start of October, Iâve been in constant pain, going back and forth between Durham and Newcastle RVI A&E knowing deep down something was seriously wrong,â OâConnor wrote via Instagram on January 31. âI said from the start I felt it was cancer. I KNEW the risks. I have colitis and PSC, two diseases that dramatically increase the chances of getting it. I KNOW how high my risk is and they do too. They always did.â
She continued, âBut not one doctor f***ing listened to me. Not one doctor took me seriously. Not one doctor did the scans or blood tests I begged for whilst crying on the floor in agony. Instead, they dismissed me. They gaslit me, told me it was nothing, made me feel like I was overreacting. They refused to scan me. They refused to investigate. They REFUSED to listen. One even told me that itâs âall in my head.â And now? Now the cancer has spread.â
