Taking to social media on February 25, 2026, Leterna announced that she would no longer attend the upcoming MCW Wrestling Fan Jam, explaining that her family is now her top priority following the medical emergency. She shared the emotional news alongside a photo from the hospital, showing her father recovering after undergoing surgery. She explained the sudden change in plans and asked fans for support during this difficult time.
“I have to pull out of @MCWWrestling Fan Jam this Sunday 3/1 as my Dad suffered a severe heart attack last night. He’s had a successful surgery and is on his way to a full recovery but I have to prioritize his care and my family at this time. Plz keep him in prayers & attend MCW!”
Leterna made it clear that while the surgery was successful and her father is recovering, her focus remains entirely on being with him and supporting her family. Her decision to step away from the fan event reflects the seriousness of the situation and her commitment to being present during his recovery.
Sam Leterna has built a strong following among wrestling fans through her announcing work and appearances across multiple promotions, and her message quickly drew an outpouring of support from fans wishing her father a full recovery.
