Marisa Abela Says She’s Cancer-Free After Thyroid Cancer, Will Take Medication for Life

She says her thyroid no longer functions, necessitating lifelong hormone pills alongside routine monitoring.

Overview

  • In new interviews with The Times and The Sunday Times, the Industry actress says she is "all in the clear" and focused on long-term care.
  • She was diagnosed in 2020 at age 23 after a GP spotted a lump on her neck during a period of unusual fatigue.
  • Her treatment involved an eight-hour operation to remove the tumor followed by radioactive iodine, which she has previously described in vivid detail.
  • Abela recalled fearing her neck scar would end her career, yet she later won a 2025 BAFTA and secured major film roles.
  • She married fellow actor Jamie Bogyo in September 2025, and HBO’s Industry returns for season 4 on January 11.
