A Scottish influencer who documented her cancer journey online has died days after entering hospice care. <\/p>\n

Danielle Quinn, from Glasgow, was initially told she had IBS before being diagnosed with Stage 3 low-grade serous carcinoma in December 2022.<\/p>\n

After an extensive seven-hour operation, the 41-year-old had ten organs removed after cancer cells were found across her abdomen.<\/p>\n

She opted for hormone therapy over chemotherapy initially, but her cancer returned in October 2024.<\/p>\n

In an update on Tuesday, the content creator said she \u201chad fought as hard as she could\u201d and revealed that she had entered hospice care after doctors told her there was nothing more they could do.<\/p>\n

Her partner, Ryan Gardiner, issued an update on Thursday, revealing she died peacefully in his arms.<\/p>\n

He wrote: \u201cI\u2019m absolutely heartbroken to tell you that my beautiful D went to sleep for the final time at 00:15 this morning.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe passed peacefully and as gracefully as ever, surrounded by an abundance of love and in my arms, exactly where I promised her I would be.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo many of you have followed D\u2019s journey as she so bravely and candidly shared some of the hardest moments of her life. You\u2019ve seen her extraordinary strength, her humour, her vulnerability and, of course, that beautiful touch of polish that made her so wonderfully D.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut behind everything she shared was simply my girl. My best friend, my little love and the woman I was so incredibly lucky to love and be loved by.<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched her face things no one should ever have to, yet somehow she still found reasons to smile, laugh and care for those around her. Even in her final days, she remained unapologetically D. I couldn\u2019t be prouder of her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m utterly devastated. We had so much more living, laughing and loving to do, and I\u2019d give anything for more time. But I\u2019ll forever treasure the life we shared and the privilege of her love.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo everyone who followed her story, supported her or quietly rooted for our girl, thank you. Your love brought her so much comfort.\u201d<\/p>\n
