Baby Azaylia’s brave fight

Earlier this month, Ex On The Beach star Ashley and Safiyya were told their daughter had just days to live.

Their eight-month-old baby is suffering from a rare form of leukaemia.

She was first diagnosed at eight weeks old and it was hoped she would recover with treatment.

But tragically, a recent CT scan revealed tumours in her brain, kidneys, liver, lungs and spleen.

The devastated couple have since brought Azaylia home for the final stage of her life.

Ashley finished his heartbreaking update with a catchphrase that has become synonymous with Azaylia’s fight.

“Let’s go champ,” he added. “Thank you, guys.”

‘For you, baby’

Meanwhile, on Saturday the family received a surprise flypast from an aeroplane.

In another emotional video, Ashley panned the camera to Azaylia and said: “That’s for you, baby. That’s for you.”

He later wrote on Instagram: “Thank you to everyone.

“You don’t understand how much all of your love and light is comforting myself and my family.

“For now we have another day to cherish with another special memory – LETS GO CHAMP!”
