Elle Macpherson is fighting cancer! The supermodel is opening up about her secret health battle — and why she’s refusing to treat her cancer with chemotherapy.
In a sprawling conversation with Women’s Weekly published on Monday, the Australian model revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer seven years ago — but has kept it under wraps this whole time.
She revealed she got the news after receiving a lumpectomy, which shook her world. She told the outlet: But against her doctor’s proposed plan of care, she denied undergoing a mastectomy, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and a breast reconstruction.
