Actress Robyn Griggs is best known for playing Stephanie Hobart on the soap opera “One Life to Live” and playing Maggie Cory on “Another World.” Later, Griggs acted in several independent made-for-video horror/thriller movies.

In 2020, Griggs was diagnosed with stage 4 endocervical adeno cancer. She was very public about her battle with cancer and regularly posted updates. 

In 2021, in an interview with “Call Me Adam,” Griggs explained what it was like to battle cancer during the pandemic. She said, “I love to laugh — that’s my way of coping, and so I made sure to find something funny to think about.” She added, “Depression is a terrible thing and I definitely have moments of that, but I remember … I’m still here.”

Griggs is no longer “still here.”

On June 13, on Griggs official Instagram page, she shared an update that she had 4 new tumors. She asked for prayers and was starting chemo the following Monday. She told the doctors “whatever it takes.”
