Leah Still has already shown she can beat cancer — and now we know she can dominate the dance floor, too. Leah Still, the daughter of Texans defensive lineman Devon Still, became known to the nation in 2014 when the Bengals lineman announced that his daughter had neuroblastoma, a form of cancer.Now, nearly two years after that diagnosis, Leah Still is cancer-free and Devon Still is a married man. The Texans player married Asha Joyce at the New York Public Library on Friday. While it may have been her father’s wedding, Leah Still found herself back in the spotlight after a video of her dancing with her father and step mother at the wedding has since gone viral. The trio are dancing to “Uptown Funk” in the video.
“We put off the wedding because my daughter was battling cancer. Now that (the wedding) is officially here, it’s the beginning of our future and the end to a hard time,” Devon Still told People Magazine. “When I saw (Leah) even before the wedding, I got emotional. We’d been waiting for this moment for a long time.”
Devon Still posted an Instagram video of his daughter giving a toast at the wedding.
“Thank you for everybody supporting me and I love my new family,” she said. “Now let’s party!”

At the time of her diagnosis, Devon Still played for the Bengals, the team that drafted him. Cincinnati cut Still in 2014 but put him on their practice squad so that he would have access to the NFL’s health insurance to cover his daughter’s treatment.
