Jill Zarin's husband of eighteen years, Bobby, passed away on Saturday after a battle with thyroid cancer. The 71-year-old was diagnosed in 2009 with cancer, and by November 2016, it spread to his brain. Just weeks ago, Jill posted two touching tributes to him on Instagram on their wedding anniversary.
“With the heaviest of hearts, we are devastated to share the news that our beloved Bobby Zarin passed away peacefully today surrounded by family after a courageous battle with cancer,” the family said in a statement. "There are no words to describe how heartbroken we are. Thank you, everyone for all your love, and support during this difficult time.”
