Set us as preferred “Bachelorette” alum Joe Amabile is home following brain surgery.“They got it all!” wrote Amabile, who uploaded an Instagram carousel with pictures of himself post-surgery on Aug.6.His wife Serena Pitt — whom he met in 2021 while filming Season 7 of “Bachelor in Paradise” — also updated fans on his recovery, uploading an Instagram carousel with pictures from NYU Langone Health, where the surgery took place.“A few peaceful moments from the hospital,” Pitt wrote in the caption.

“Joe is home recovering and we’re so grateful to have been in such good hands.”In July, Amabile revealed on Instagram that MRI testing found a “blueberry-sized” brain tumor, which would need to be removed for further examination.The couple would elaborate further on the health issue on their July 16 podcast “Not Married to This With Serena & Joe,” saying that they both underwent a preventative whole-body MRI scan with Prenuvo (the same private diagnostic company that showed “Extra” and “E!” host Maria Menounos had a full mass on her pancreas, which was later confirmed to be a cancerous Stage 2 pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor).Pitt’s scan revealed two small, innocuous nodules.Amabile’s results indicated that he had a lesion in his brain the size of a marble, prompting him to get an additional MRI with and without contrast.“We got the good news that it wasn’t enhancing and we got the concerning news that it still was something.

It wasn’t nothing,” Pitt said on the podcast.“There’s no other way around it.There’s something there and you don’t want anything in your brain,” added Amabile.Before surgery, Amabile shared that he would undergo a craniotomy, a surgery in which a neurosurgeon temporarily removes a piece of the skull to reach the brain and remove the tumor.
