Christina Applegate's cancer fight |
|||||||
Christina Applegate has been diagnosed with breast cancer. The 36-year-old 'Friends' star has an early form of the disease and is expected to make a full recovery, her spokesperson has revealed. The actress' publicist issued a statement on Saturday (02.08.08) saying: "Christina Applegate was diagnosed with an early form of breast cancer. Benefiting from early detection through a doctor ordered MRI, the cancer is not life threatening. "Christina is following the recommended treatment of her doctors and will have a full recovery. No further statement will be issued at this time." It was revealed last month that Christina - best known for her role as Kelly Bundy in US TV show 'Married? With Children' - is to join stars including Meryl Streep and Charlize Theron in a one-hour TV special to raise funds for Stand Up to Cancer. Christina - who has been nominated for an Emmy and a Golden Globe for 'Samantha Who? - won an Emmy award in 2003 for her role as Jennifer Aniston's sister Amy in 'Friends'. |
