More about Row

Row was raised in Orange County, California, and worked as a clinical psychologist. She first met Elliott in a gym and they eventually got married in September 2011, having given birth to two children, Luna and Liam.
Elliott revealed her diagnosis in 2022
Row got her initial diagnosis in 2018 but it wasn’t until 2022 that Elliott revealed the tragic news that his wife had been diagnosed with stage 4 gastric cancer.
“I got my initial diagnosis in 2018, after two years of having reflux pain that wouldn’t go away,” Row told Orange Coast Magazine in 2024.
Her cancer was private at first
Row kept her diagnosis private at first because she didn’t want it to negatively impact her husband’s career.
However, when her cancer reached stage 4, she felt that it was her duty to advocate for stomach cancer patients, hence, her opening up about her journey.
“She’s a warrior”
Elliott told People in October: “She’s a warrior, and I’m not saying that just because I’m married to her. I’m saying that because it’s amazing to watch a woman fight. She fights for her kids. She fights for her family.”
Row is survived by her husband and children.
