She shared on May 24, 2023, "I am now cancer free 😷 🏥🩺⚕️🚑," along with a Snapchat photo seemingly taken from a hospital bed with the caption “I lived bitch” written across it.

Goldberg and Tim Bergling, also known as Avicii, dated for two years before his tragic death in April 2018 by suicide.

On April 21, a tribute to the "Wake Me Up" producer was posted on her Instagram, where Goldberg wrote:

“Come on babe, don’t give up on us. Choose me, and I’ll show you love.” Those are lyrics from a song Tim wrote for me. I wish I could have lived up to them. For the two years we were together, he was my closest confidante, and my best friend. Now I can’t look at Bear without knowing I’ll never see his face again. I’m still collecting my thoughts and thank you for all your kind words and texts. Wake me up when it’s all over, because I don’t want it to be real 💔 #ripavicii #avicii”
