Social media star Nara Smith has said her two-year-old daughter Whimsy is in remission after being diagnosed with cancer.
The “trad-wife” influencer is best known for narrating parts of her day in a low voice and making meals from scratch while wearing extravagant clothes.
It comes weeks after the 24-year-old, who is married to model Lucky Blue Smith, revealed that their daughter had undergone chemotherapy since she was diagnosed last year.

In a video shared on Instagram, Smith said: “(We) wanted to wait until she was done with treatment and us knowing what the outcome of her situation would be before sharing it, and even finding the words to share it.
“Now that she’s finally in remission, it felt like I could find the words to share.
“The whole point of me sharing our experience was to shed light on what so many families go through and battle privately.
“Going through chemo treatments opened my eyes to how expensive medical care is, and what a toll it takes on families specifically.”
Smith said she and her husband, 28, have been trying to “return to everyday life”, adding that they are taking it “day by day”.
“I don’t know whether life will ever feel normal again, but we’re trying to navigate this next chapter the best that we can,” she added.
Smith went on to thank people for their “kind messages, prayers, and support” and shared her support for families that “are actively still going through this fight”.
The influencer, who has four children with the model and gave birth to their youngest child, Fawnie Golden, in October last year, said the pair were looking into charities and foundations to support.
