Summary
- Married At First Sight star Chanita Stephenson underwent surgery for a large cyst.
- The 17cm ovarian cyst was nicknamed "Terry" by the reality TV personality.

Married At First Sight personality Chanita Stephenson recently underwent surgery to remove a large 17cm ovarian cyst, which she had nicknamed "Terry." Sharing her recovery journey, Stephenson posted a mirror selfie highlighting her flat stomach, expressing gratitude and relief after the operation. She had previously opened up about her fears surrounding the surgery.
Stephenson first disclosed her health battle last year, describing the cyst as a "17cm plot twist." Although initially referred on a cancer pathway, she confirmed she does not have cancer. She recalled experiencing persistent bloating, which she initially attributed to dietary issues, before discovering the significant cyst on her ovary.
The reality star underwent open surgery, and the cyst was successfully removed. She encouraged her followers to seek medical attention for any long-standing health concerns. This health challenge follows a difficult period for Stephenson, including the recent death of her mother in January 2026 and a previous breakup after her MAFS appearance in 2022.
