Accusing someone of lying about their illness is a pretty serious thing, but that’s exactly what some so-called fans of the hit show Alaskan Bush People are doing.
According to In Touch Weekly, Ami Brown — the matriarch of the Brown family, the family featured in Alaskan Bush People — has been in the news as of late for her cancer diagnosis. Reportedly, Ami had been battling advanced-stage lung cancer for a while, even though she recently announced that she has a clean bill of health and the cancer is in remission, for now.
That has led some fans of the show to take to the family’s Facebook page to question whether or not Ami did, in fact, have cancer, or whether she was just “faking” the disease for ratings so the show could get renewed.
That resulted in the family releasing a statement confirming that Ami Brown did have cancer, and to suggest otherwise was simply ridiculous.
