Ashley Cain reveals daughter Azaylia is still ‘smiling and playing’ despite losing some movement in face from tumours
Ashley Cain has shared another sweet update on his daughter Azaylia, revealing she still has ‘so much fight’ in her despite being given days to live.
The Ex On The Beach star, 30, has vowed to make the most of every moment he and girlfriend Safiyya Vorajee have left with their eight-month-old daughter, who has been battling leukaemia.
Ashley revealed last week that doctors had told them that Azyalia has just days left to live after more tumours were found, including on her brain, with the couple taking her home to give her the best last few days that they can.
He shared another update on Azaylia on Monday night, revealing that the little girl is still fighting and smiling despite losing some of the movement in her face as a result of the tumours.
Ashley shared a video of him cradling Azaylia as he wrote: ‘Time is passing so quickly. Every second means everything.’
Posting a video of a happy Azaylia poking his face and kissing him, he added: ‘There’s still so much fight in the LikkleLion.

‘She’s losing some movement on one side of her face as a result of the tumours but she’s still the most beautiful little girl.’
He bit her fingers and told her he loved her as he added: ‘The fact that she is still smiling and playing in everything.’
Ashley and Safiyya had been planning to take Azaylia to Singapore for a year-long course of specialist treatment for which they had fundraised £1.5million and which they hoped would save her life, but received the devastating news that her leukaemia was no longer responding to treatment.
The couple took Azaylia home to spend her last days together, but had to rush her back into hospital for a platelet transfusion after she began bleeding from her nose.
Despite the transfusion, Safiyya revealed that Azaylia’s bleeding did not stop overnight and they were waiting for a nurse to come out to see them at home to check her over.
