Julia recently opened up to Hello! Magazine, sharing how her biopsy results have affected her ahead of the life-changing operation.
She told the publication: “Fear of death is what you think of when you first hear the cancer word, then it’s fear of the unknown, then there’s a grieving process, as well, and disbelief.
“I don’t know, nobody does, what awaits me on the other side, I don’t know if the cancer has spread or if I’m going to need chemo.”
