With colleagues and movie lovers still struggling to process the sudden death of the 42-year-old mother of two, just four days shy of her 43rd birthday, the unearthing of a historic interview has injected a wave of raw emotion into the collective mourning.
"We are scared" - Beverly Afaglo
In the resurfaced clip, originally granted to Joy News during an awareness campaign, a visibly passionate and vulnerable Beverly did not hold back about the silent threat looming over her household.
She detailed how her beloved father and her sister had both been tragically snatched away by the disease, a devastating reality that left her deeply aware of her own genetic makeup.
"My life is at risk because now I can confirm that it's in my blood, my genes," Beverly shared emotionally in the vintage footage.
"We are scared. I think we need to be very serious about cancer and its education in this country."
For fans reviewing the clip on Sunday morning, her words felt like a heavy, prophetic window into her reality.
Many observers noted that her decision to rock a clean, low haircut in recent times, which fans initially celebrated as a bold fashion statement, now carries a poignant weight, leading many to believe she was gracefully navigating treatment away from public pity and media intrusion.
