Russian propagandist Margarita Simonyan admitted that she is undergoing treatment. While earlier she did not mention cancer directly, she has now openly revealed her diagnosis, according to her Telegram channel.
What the propagandist said
Simonyan shared a screenshot of a message in which someone allegedly asked about her condition. She often "reposts" such so-called "messages from fans" to create the impression that people are concerned about her.
She reminded readers that her husband, Tigran Keosayan, has been in a coma for nine months. Now, she herself is battling cancer.
"I would gladly write that everything is fine with me, but I try never to lie. Tigran is still in a coma, and I am undergoing treatment for cancer. What’s good about that?" Margarita complained.
She also noted that she may soon start losing her hair, suggesting that she is currently undergoing chemotherapy.
"Soon you’ll see me in wigs. We’ll be choosing together which one suits me best," she added.

What is known about Simonyan’s illness
The 44-year-old propagandist spoke about serious health problems back in early September. At the time, during a broadcast on one of the Russian TV channels, she admitted that she had been diagnosed with a "serious illness" and was preparing for surgery. Later, Russian media reported that it was cancer.
