Once again, Daniel Aminati’s (49) family has to deal with a serious blow: As the TV presenter announced on his official Instagram page, his wife Patrice Eva was diagnosed with “malignant (black) skin cancer” during a routine examination, ” which has already formed metastases”. His wife has already had an operation on her neck, which “went well. The tumor and some lymph nodes were removed.”

However, the ordeal of his loved one is still long, Aminati continues: “Unfortunately, Patrice now has to endure further treatments and a lengthy, intensive immunotherapy. […] The next few months will be challenging, but despite all the uncertainty, we know: We have each other – and that fills us with gratitude.”

In the comment column, numerous celebrities express their dismay and send well wishes. Artistic gymnast Fabian Hambüchen (35) wishes “all the best, a lot of strength and cohesion during this time”. Model Papis Loveday (46) writes: “I’m so sorry, I wish her a lot of strength.” He will pray for her and asks Daniel Aminati to stay strong for his two loved ones.

Aminati also posted several pictures on his Instagram account. One of them shows Patrice Eva lying in a hospital bed with a large plaster on her neck. Another shows how she apparently takes loving care of her daughter Charly Malika Aminati shortly after the operation. Aminati writes that his wife is dealing with the difficult situation “incredibly bravely” and with “admirable confidence”.

The two only became parents together in August last year. In April they had said yes after a relationship of several years.

Just two weeks before the birth of little Charly Malika, Aminati had to share another bad news: “My middle sister Deborah’s heart stopped beating on the night of August 3, 2022,” he wrote on Instagram. She was only 46 years old. Aminati says he spoke to her the night before Deborah died. She died “after decades of excessive alcohol consumption”. A friend found the deceased lifeless in the morning and took her to a hospital. But she could not be revived.
