The Edge’s daughter, Sian, has beaten cancer, but her mom, Morleigh Steinberg, says that the family struggled to stay positive as she fought for her life.
Morleigh Steinberg, the wife of U2 rocker The Edge — real name David Evans — has described for the first time the “hell” the couple went through as their now 13-year-old daughter, Sian, battled cancer. As any mother would be, Morleigh was devastated in 2006 when she discovered that her daughter had leukemia. “You’re in shock then you just go into survival mode,” she tells WENN. “The whole thing is hell but at the same time you stay positive and you really live. You live more because you don’t want to take anything for granted.”
