Robert Wolański Publishes Memoir Detailing Agnieszka Maciąg’s Final Days and Nearly 30-Year Romance
Today my sun went out. The light that changed my life,
wrote Robert Wolański in a poignant personal tribute reported by Fact, marking the November 27, 2025, death of his wife, the writer and former model Agnieszka Maciąg, at age 56 following a battle with stage 4 cancer.
Nearly a year after her passing, Wolański has authored a memoir titled Agnieszka Maciąg. The Story of a Certain Love (Agnieszka Maciąg: The Story of a Certain Love), scheduled for publication on November 12, 2026, by Wydawnictwo W.A.B., as detailed across reports from Pomponik and Medonet. The book documents not only their three decades together and a past marital crisis that temporarily separated them, but also provides intimate journal entries and reflections from Maciąg’s final days.
Visions of Peace Before Her Passing in Late November
Advance excerpts published by Fact reveal that Maciąg spoke openly about exhaustion and an impending end during mid-November 2025. On November 17, ten days before her death, she expressed a desire to rest, stating, I want to go home now… But not to our place.
I want to go home now.
To that!
I want to rest.
I want to fall asleep and be there already.
Beautiful funeral.
By November 19, she remarked that she no longer needed anything.
Couple Rebuilds Relationship and Welcomes Daughter After Past Separation
Before her stage 4 diagnosis, the couple worked through a major relationship hurdle, according to Pomponik. After a period of separation during their nearly 30-year relationship, Wolański purchased a house in Orłowiec within the Złote Mountains, which served as a fresh start. Maciąg gradually began visiting, assisting with renovations, and spending weekends there until their bond naturally repaired itself without a formal reconciliation declaration.
That restored domestic life eventually included the birth of their daughter Helenka. According to details shared in Medonet, Maciąg experienced intense professional and emotional pressures during her first motherhood, balancing a demanding modeling career with family life. When expecting Helenka, she chose a home birth supported by experienced midwife Ewa Janiuk from Opole, transforming their restored property into a birthplace.
A Rapid 48-Hour Diagnosis and Months of Hospital Treatment
The final chapter of Maciąg’s life changed abruptly in late 2025 following a period of persistent fatigue that initially seemed like ordinary exhaustion, as Wolański revealed in an exclusive interview with Viva! magazine. After an ambulance transport, medical tests revealed a stage 4 cancer diagnosis within 48 hours.
Wolański recalled being thrust into an information vacuum, spending days on the phone contacting oncology networks and foundations. Maciąg spent four consecutive months hospitalized while her husband stepped away from professional commissions. Once discharged, she managed to complete a book she had begun before her diagnosis, finding strength in writing and recording webinars despite being unable to travel for public workshops.
