Howard Stern sidekick Robin Quivers is 'cancer free' after 14-year battle

NEW YORK — SiriusXM personality Robin Quivers says she’s won her long-running battle with cancer.

The 73-year-old radio host announced the good news after her longtime colleague Howard Stern asked her to share “the best news ever” on the pair’s Monday morning program.

“I’m cancer free,” Quivers declared.

Stern told “The Howard Stern Show” listeners that Quivers did everything right after being diagnosed with endometrial cancer 14 years ago and is now reaping the rewards of her hard work.

“I love you. And I am so happy for you,” Stern said. “And I don’t even know what you must be feeling inside.”

Quivers admitted she felt like a new woman after being medically cleared of a potentially fatal sickness.

“I was like a person who’s won the lottery and can’t believe their eyes when they’re seeing all the numbers,” the former nurse said.

She wondered “Is this what I think it says?” after seeing the results.

 

Stern called his radio partner’s recovery an “unbelievable miracle.”

Quivers couldn’t immediately be reached for comment after Monday’s broadcast.

She told the Daily News in 2013 that Stern was the first person she called after her cancer diagnosis. Quivers said a tumor the “size of a grapefruit” was removed from her pelvis following a gruelling 12-hour operation.

“I didn’t know a body could take that much punishment,” she confessed.

Quivers spent nearly 17 months away from her SiriusXM studio after her procedure. Stern welcomed her back with great appreciation and a bevy of roses.

She detailed the lifestyle adjustments she made to continue her fight with cancer in a book titled “The Vegucation of Robin.”
