Married With Children star Christina Applegate reveals she had both breasts removed

[RAB - P]

ACTRESS Christina Applegate has told how she had to make the terrible decision to have both her breasts removed after being diagnosed with cancer.

In an interview on US television, the 36-year-old star of Married With Children said it seemed "the most logical" treatment.

She added: "After looking at all the treatment plans, the one that was going to work for me was to have a bilateral mastectomy."

She revealed that the surgery three weeks ago was a success. Christina said: "I'm absolutely 100 per cent clear and clean. It did not spread, they got everything out."

She said she will now have reconstructive surgery over the next eight months.

Christina, who stars in US sitcom Samantha Who?, joked: "I'm going to have cute boobs until I'm 90."

Not a pleasant thing for any woman to go through. Good luck to her. My mother in law and aunt have both been through similar and have had the all clear too

Terrible disease,
My mum died at 43 from it.
She did have a mastectomy on one side but it was to late.

I quite fancy her, tit's or not.

It's a shame a young woman has to go through that, or a woman of any age for that matter.

She is a stunning woman, I loved her in MWC. Nice to see she has a sense of humour and is being strong, hope everything works out for her.
