R&B singer Nivea is opening up about a deeply personal health battle, revealing that she was diagnosed with leukemia earlier this year and is currently undergoing treatment.

The Grammy-nominated singer shared the news during a recent appearance on Cadillac Chronicles, where she reflected on what she’s most grateful for. Nivea said her diagnosis has changed her perspective on life, but she remains optimistic about her future.

“I’m so grateful to God,” she said, adding that she’s been receiving treatment and that “everything is going great so far.”

She also expressed confidence that her recovery will continue in a positive direction.

The 44-year-old singer said the experience has reminded her not to take life for granted.

“It’s so cliché to say you don’t know the time or the hour, but it’s true,” Nivea shared. “It helped me put a lot of things in perspective. I live in gratitude.”

Despite her diagnosis, Nivea isn’t slowing down. She revealed that she’s continuing to make music, raise her children, and pursue a longtime passion by studying audio engineering. She said focusing on the things she loves has helped her maintain a positive outlook throughout her treatment.

Nivea rose to fame in the early 2000s with hits like “Don’t Mess With My Man,” “Laundromat,” and “Okay,” earning a Grammy nomination and becoming one of R&B’s most recognizable voices of the era.

Since sharing her diagnosis, fans and fellow artists have flooded social media with prayers, encouragement, and well wishes as she continues her fight against leukemia.

Nivea has made it clear that her faith, family, and gratitude remain at the center of her journey, and she’s hopeful for what’s ahead.
