“This is every parent’s absolute worst nightmare”

90 Day Fiancé star Deavan Clegg’s son has been diagnosed with leukemia.

The heartbroken mum revealed her 3-year-old boy has been hospitalised.

Alongside photos of her son Taeyang in hospital, the reality star opened up about his harrowing diagnosis.

She said she wanted to be transparent with her followers, but admitted it wasn’t easy sharing this devastating news.

Taeyang has been diagnosed with b-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

“I am choosing to share the most vulnerable and saddest point of my life right now in hopes it can help give anyone else dealing with a similar situation some strength.

“I’m overcome with so much emotion and devastation,” the mum said.

Her son had recently turned 3-years-old.


“He has already undergone multiple procedures and started chemotherapy treatment just two days ago.

The mum said: “This is every parent’s absolute worst nightmare.”

She said she is doing her best to stay strong for her son, as well as Drascilla and “my baby in my tummy”.

However, the mum said she is completely heartbroken and overwhelmed by the news.

Her son will need round-the-clock hospital care. He will be treated for cancer for the next two years, but the success rate is high.

Doctors say he could make a full recovery in the next five years.

“I’m still processing all of this and asking for prayers, please.

“I’m so beside myself right now and my heart is broken,” she added.

She has asked her supporters to help her raise funds for her son’s medical care.

Deavan shares her son with ex-husband Jihoon Lee.

She is currently pregnant with her third child.
