Patti Scialfa, E Street Band member and wife of Bruce Springsteen, reveals cancer diagnosis

Bruce Springsteen’s wife and E Street Band member Patti Scialfa disclosed she had been fighting cancer for a few years.

Scialfa said in Springsteen’s new documentary, Rock Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, which debuted on September 8, Toronto International Film Festival, she had been diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 2018.

The singer-songwriter took the tough choice to back off as the diagnosis made it challenging for her to tour with her husband and the E Street Band.

“This influences my immune system, thus I have to be careful what I do and where I choose to go,” she stated. “It’s been great every once in a while when I visit a performance or two and can sing a few tunes on stage. Right now, it is my new normal and I am good with that.
