Love truly knows no bounds, and for our very own Katrina Leeder, the presenter of the weekend wake-up show and star of the reality show Airline, this sentiment couldn’t be truer. In a heartwarming wedding ceremony at the Gretna Green Famous Blacksmiths Shop in Scotland, Katrina and her long-time partner, Simon, exchanged vows just weeks after revealing their ongoing battle with cancer.

A Wedding Against All Odds

The picturesque setting of Gretna Green provided the backdrop for Katrina and Simon’s wedding, where they defied the challenges posed by both their current health conditions. Despite Simon’s recent chemotherapy leaving him weak and fatigued, the couple radiated joy and love on their big day. Katrina looked absolutely beautiful in her elegant white wedding dress, and Simon, who looked dapper in a dark green suit, embraced each other in a celebration of life and commitment.

A True Love Story

Katrina’s Instagram caption without a shadow of a doubt revealed the depth of their love and determination: “Wooo hooo, well, we did it! Simon was feeling so weak and rough after his chemotherapy a few days ago; in fact, he was asleep up until an hour before the wedding. But he did it, we did it, and I am very proud to be his wife, Mrs. Drew. We will keep each other strong forever.” Their story is a testament to the power of love to overcome even the hardest of challenges life throws their way.

Facing Cancer Head-On, A History of Resilience

Back in January 2024, Katrina shared the devastating news of her and Simon’s cancer battle, both undergoing chemotherapy. Katrina has been a beacon of strength throughout her 22-year fight against cancer, having faced the life-threatening disease eight times. Her resilience is awe-inspiring, having lost a kidney, spleen, part of a lung, diaphragm, half her stomach, gallbladder, and 70% of her liver during her battles. Yet, she continues to face life with courage and an unwavering spirit, which is why she is still a much-loved presenter on Travel.radio.

Katrina’s openness about her health battles has touched the hearts of many, proving that she is not just a survivor but a true fighter. Her last bout with cancer was in May 2013, and since then, she has become a symbol of hope and perseverance.
