White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles has announced that she is free of cancer, several months after revealing that she had been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer.
Wiles shared the update on social media on Wednesday, saying that a recent medical evaluation showed she no longer has evidence of the disease. Reuters reported that the announcement came after she underwent treatment following her diagnosis earlier this year.
President Donald Trump announced Wiles’ diagnosis in March, saying at the time that the cancer had been detected at an early stage and that she had received an excellent prognosis. Wiles, 68, said she intended to continue working while receiving treatment.
Wiles became the first woman to serve as White House chief of staff when Trump returned to office for his second term. She has remained closely involved in the administration’s daily operations throughout her treatment.
CBS News reported that Wiles underwent a medical procedure related to her breast cancer at the Mayo Clinic earlier this week. Sources told the outlet that she returned to work afterward and continued holding meetings and conducting White House business.
Her latest announcement marks a significant update since she first disclosed the diagnosis in March. At that time, Wiles said many women continue working and caring for their families while facing breast cancer, adding that she intended to do the same.
Wiles has been one of Trump’s closest political advisers for years. She played a senior role in his 2024 presidential campaign before becoming the first woman appointed to the White House chief of staff position.
The announcement comes as the Trump administration continues to deal with a range of domestic and international issues. Wiles remains a central figure in coordinating the White House’s political and policy operations.
Her statement that she is now free of cancer provides an update on a health issue that had been publicly disclosed earlier in the year, while further details about her medical treatment have not been made public.
