This is a list of notable people who have or had ovarian cancer, whose illness attracted publicity.

Ovarian cancer is a cancer that forms in or on an ovary.[1][2] It results in abnormal cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body.[3] When this process begins, there may be no or only vague symptoms.[4] Symptoms become more noticeable as the cancer progresses.[4][5] These symptoms may include bloating, pelvic pain, abdominal swelling, and loss of appetite, among others.[4] Common areas to which the cancer may spread include the lining of the abdomen, lymph nodes, lungs, and liver.[6]
