OLIVIA Newton-John’s management has denied tacky online rumours claiming she has only weeks to live.

US gossip site Radaronline ran the claims on Boxing Day, before they were belatedly picked up by several Australian sites yesterday.

“Olivia’s bodily functions appear to be shutting down, but she refuses to let go until she makes it through (daughter) Chloe’s wedding day,” a “source” told Radaronline.

The story includes a quote attributed to Newton-John, saying: “I refuse to die in a hospital room, I’ll go on my own terms, in our home and in my own bed, but not until Chloe says ‘I do’.”

The singer’s Facebook page called out the story as fake when it circulated last week, while her social media manager Randy Slovacek said yesterday: “We have stated over and over again publicly she’s feeling better. People just seem to want to believe some dramatic turn.”

Newton-John, who turned 70 last September, revealed her latest cancer diagnosis is actuually her third.

While she went public with h her 1992 diagnosis with breast  cancer, and then that it had metastasised to her lower back in May 2017, she disclosed the cancer also returned in 2012 in n her autobiography Don’t Stop Believin’, released last year.

“I insisted on additional testing and found the bump was actually a recurrence of my breast  cancer,” Newton-John writes in her memoirs.

She kept the diagnosis secret and went to a clinic in Georgia “where they help people deal with illness in a natural way without prescription drugs”.

The singer said the oestrogen-blocking medicine she was prescribed led to depression, so she relied on husband John Easterling’s Amazonian herb formulas and liaised with the oncology team at her Cancer and Wellness Centre in Melbourne during her treatment.

“When I went back for a second CAT scan the tumour had reduced and we decided to keep an eye on it. Life went on.”

In the book, Newton-John reveals she is having photon radiation therapy to tackle her third bout of cancer, again mixing natural therapies with conventional ones, but only had chemotherapy in 1992.

Easterling has also created his own strains of medicinal cannabis for his wife. “This has helped me greatly with pain and sleep,” she states of a “much maligned” plant, adding “my dream is that it won’t be long before everyone has access to this healing medicine”.
