Tonight on social media, Tony Award-winner James Monroe Iglehart and his wife, Dawn Iglehart, posted a very personal and positive message on social media regarding Dawn's health as she concludes treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Following her diagnosis in the fall, Iglehart stepped out of a production of Little Shop of Horrors at the Kennedy Center, remaining home to support his spouse.

As the couple comes up on what they hope to be Dawn's final treatments, they took to Instagram to thank friends, family, colleagues, and fans for their support throughout the process.

See their message below:

Iglehart won a 2014 Tony Award for his performance as the Genie in Aladdin. He then went on to star as a replacement for Thomas Jefferson/Marquis de Lafayette in Hamilton on Broadway. He originated the role of Bobby in the Tony-winning musical Memphis. Other NYC credits include The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee and The Wiz. James is a member of the hip-hop improv group Freestyle Love Supreme, which is currently making its off-Broadway debut.
