Supermodel Linda Evangelista has revealed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer and quietly underwent a double mastectomy five years ago.
The 58-year-old Canadian, one of the original supermodels, also said she found another lump in her chest last year.
In a new interview she spoke out about her December 2018 diagnosis that led to her having a bilateral mastectomy before she found another lump in her chest last year.: "The margins were not good, and due to other health factors, without hesitation, because I wanted to put everything behind me and not to have to deal with this, I opted for a bilateral mastectomy. Thinking I was good and set for life. Breast cancer was not going to kill me.
But unfortunately she had another cancer scare in July last year after discovering a lump in her chest. She explained that she had had chemotherapy and radiotherapy for her latest tumour and her prognosis is "good but not great." She said: "Once it's come back, there's a chance. I know I have one foot in the grave, but I'm totally in celebration mode," she said.
