Influencer Nara Smith’s 2-year-old daughter diagnosed with cancer

Nara Smith’s 2-year-old daughter, Whimsy Lou, was diagnosed with cancer “late last year.”

The social media influencer shared the news Wednesday with an Instagram Reel, which began with the acknowledgement that there was “no easy way to say [it] or talk about” it.

She and husband Lucky Blue Smith “saw something suspicious” on the toddler and took her to the emergency room, Nara explained — but the staff “did not know what to make of it.”

However, when Nara, 24, and the model, 28, brought Whimsy to the pediatrician, he became “really quiet and calm” and advised they visit a children’s hospital.

“My heart dropped in that moment,” Nara recalled. “I don’t know whether it was my gut telling me something or just a mom’s intuition, but the first thing that I felt was, ‘She has cancer.’

“After a lot of X-rays, ultrasounds and finally a biopsy, they immediately called us and said that she had cancer,” she continued. “[They] told us it had spread and that she need[ed] to come and start chemo treatments immediately.”

Nara, who did not clarify where Whimsy’s health currently stands, noted that “processing this and navigating all of this as a family has been really hard.”

She and Lucky, notably, were “loving and caring” for their other kids — daughter Rumble Honey, 5, son Slim Easy, 4, and daughter Fawnie Golden, who was born in late 2025.

Lucky is also the father of a 8-year-old daughter named Gravity with his ex Stormi Bree.

“Being in the hospital with Whimsy a lot and balancing work on top of that has been really challenging,” Nara said. “Some days are a little easier, some days are really hard, and all I can do is try my best and show up in all those areas in the best way that I can.”

Nara, who pointed out that she has been “posting a little less” lately, said she hopes the social media upload brings “comfort and alleviate[s] the feeling of loneliness” for those similarly struggling.

“We wanted to share this to … even incentivize you to go get something checked out that you’ve been avoiding,” she concluded.

In her video’s caption, Nara expressed feeling “thankful for each and every nurse and doctor along [their] journey who helped [them] get through and out the other end🤍.”

The featured image for the post was a black-and-white shot of Lucky sitting in a hospital room alongside a healthcare worker.

He and Nara have been together since 2019, with the duo getting engaged that same year and tying the knot in February 2020.

Rumble and Slim were born in October 2020 and January 2022, respectively, followed by Whimsy in April 2024.
