Millie Mackintosh shares poignant message following breast cancer scare
Millie Mackintosh makes vow following breast cancer scare
Millie Mackintosh shared her "nerve-racking" experience after discovering a breast lump, which led to an anxious wait for biopsy and MRI results.
The Made In Chelsea star vowed to raise awareness for women's health and the importance of early detection if she received an all-clear, stressing that breast cancer can affect younger women.
Fortunately, the lump was diagnosed as a hormonal issue 18 months ago, but the scare motivated her to fulfil her promise to help others.
Mackintosh recently completed a challenging 100km trek across the Moroccan Sahara Desert to raise money and awareness for the youth-focused breast cancer charity CoppaFeel!
She described the trek as a life-changing experience, despite the physical demands and the difficulty of being separated from her young daughters without phone signal.
