JANE Fallon has slammed a fake obituary was published online after she was revealed she had cancer.
The author, who is the partner of comedian Ricky Gervais, had posted the fake death notice to her X account, but later chose to delete saying she was angered by it.
The author told fans last month that she had breast cancer, despite having no symptoms before the diagnosis.
She has kept fans updated about her progress after having surgery late last month, but her latest post dealt with the fake obituary and she explained why she removed it form her account.
“I’ve taken the post about the obituary down, because I don’t want people to think I’m upset by it. I’m not. P***ed off yes,” she began.
“But more, I just want people to know that any photos you see of me in hospital, looking sad or with tubes sticking out of me are 100% fake – AI generated.”
Following her recent procedure, Jane told her followers she was feeling “remarkably fine” and in good spirits.
She assured people she wold update them once she had the medical all clear.
“Then 8-10 days wait for confirmation that they’ve got it all & the margins are clear (small % chance of more surgery if not),” Jane wrote.
She has been resting up at home with the support of cat Pickles.
