2015 saw Haley Odlozil get a Stage IIIC ovarian cancer diagnosis shortly before she wed Taylor.
The 30-year-old has since shared details of her illness on social media, being open about it.
But now her husband has confirmed the terrible news that Hayley has passed away.
Taylor said on TikTok that he was devastated by her departure and couldn’t picture life without her. Her family included her baby son Weston.
@taylorodlozil It is with unbelievable sadness that I tell all of you my sweet Haley has passed away. I cannot begin to describe the amount of heart ache & grief myself & our entire family is experiencing. I never knew my heart could physically hurt. Ive never seen someone fight so hard to live. Her love for me, Weston, her family, & her friends is what has kept her going for so many years, especially the last 8 months. Im so blessed to have had Haley a part of my life for 16 years. It has been my true honor to take care of her. I am so grateful for the lessons I have learned from Haley. As the husband I have seen every moment. The happy ones & the sad ones. One thing I can tell you, she suffered greatly fighting this disease that slowly tore her body apart for the last 8 years. The thought of her being completely healed in a body with no pain & no scars in heaven makes me so incredibly happy for her but so overwhelmingly sad Im not there to see it. My fear of death is so much less knowing I will get to see her one day completely healed. I cannot wait for that day. Im so thankful I got to see Haley fulfill her life purpose of becoming a mom. She was an incredible mother. My heart breaks most for Weston. I dont think he will ever fully understand what he meant to Haley. He was everything to her. I love you Haley. More than I can put into words. You are a part of who I am and I will never stop loving you. I cant wait to see you again. Thank you to all our friends & family for so much support & prayers for so long. Because of who Haley is, her story has exploded across the world. Ive received emails & messages from people from just about every country. She has changed so many people & brought awareness to this terrible disease. Im so proud of that. She always said she didnt want her suffering to be wasted. Haley wanted people to learn from her. I would say she accomplished that! So due to the large following Haley has developed, I will not be sharing the funeral arrangements. Any friends & family that need the information please message me or any of my close friends. I have also decided I will not be posting on social media for a while. I need some time to process with my son.

Taylor said, “He tells everyone that his sweet Haley has passed away with the deepest sorrow.” The amount of grief and sadness he and his entire family are going through is beyond words.
He didn’t realise that his heart might hurt. He has never witnessed somebody battle so valiantly for their life. For many years, especially the last eight months, she has been sustained by her love for him, Weston, her family, and her friends. He feels fortunate to have had Haley in his life for sixteen years. He can look after her, which has been an honour.
Haley and Taylor met in high school and began dating in 2008.
However, a few years later, Haley’s fatal cancer diagnosis broke their friendship.
The couple got married and had their first kid, Weston, via surrogacy a year after her diagnosis.
Over the years, millions of people who have viewed Haley’s videos and postings have been moved by her story.
Following the news of Haley’s passing, her fans and admirers took to social media to express their sorrow and sympathy for her family.
One user said, “Was not emotionally prepared to open Tiktok and see that Haley Odlozil passed away.”
“In case you are not acquainted with the tale, she and her spouse have been chronicling her fight against cancer.” illustrating how she spent the previous year saying her goodbyes and getting ready for her child.
Another commented, “My heart is so heavy today, I opened TikTok and saw she died. I’ve been following #Haleyodlozil for a while.” Why does it feel like I no longer have a true friend? Fly aloft, sweet angel! “Please accept my deepest sympathies to her friends and family during this trying time.”
A third person remarked, “Rest in paradise, beautiful Haley Odlozil.”
“My heart breaks for her husband and little boy, as Hayley Odlozil passed away,” expressed another devastated fan.
