Springsteen’s Wife Patti Scialfa Has Cancer Diagnosis

Bruce Springsteen’s wife, Patti Scialfa, who is also a member of the E Street Band, has revealed that she has privately been battling blood cancer.

Scialfa, 71, opened up about her diagnosis in a new documentary, “Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band,” sharing that she first learned she had multiple myeloma in 2018, during the “Springsteen on Broadway” concert residency.

In the film, Scialfa acknowledged the challenges of touring with the illness, saying that although it “felt so good to be back on stage,” “touring has become a challenge,” according to The Guardian.
