Celebrity Big Brother star Danielle Lloyd has updated fans on her skin cancer journey after announcing the shocking news last month – with her now showing off her new scar
Celebrity Big Brother star Danielle Lloyd has showed off the results of her skin cancer surgery.
The former model, 41, showed off the aftermath online as she showcased a big scar on her chest after having one of her moles removed. The mother-of-five revealed revealed she has given up sunbeds for good aft her diagnosis “changed her outlook on life”.
She shared:”‘I used to be a total sun worshiper, never really thinking about the risk of skin cancer. Sunbeds before holidays? Absolutely!
“But now, I’ve decided it’s better to fake the glow because my health and being there for my kids are what truly matter. I’m still waiting on the results from my second operation, but I’m keeping my spirits up and pledging to keep my skin safe from those pesky UV rays in the future!”
In February, Danielle announced the news online and shared her diagnosis with her followers.
She wrote: “I don’t really know how to say this and I didn’t know whether to come on and say this but I feel like I have to raise awareness of this kind of thing happening to other people.
“Today I have been diagnosed with a form of skin cancer.
“I just want to raise awareness for anyone who thinks they’ve got something funny on their body, they see a mole growing, which is not normal – please please please go to your doctor because honestly, you just never know.”
She has since detailed the emotional moment she told her three eldest sons the news, Archie, 14, George, 13, and Harry, 11 – who she shares with her ex-husband Jamie O’Hara.
The former pageant beauty hasn’t told her two younger boys Ronnie, seven, and Autumn, three – who she shares with her husband Michael O’Neill.
She told Closer: “I told the older three but not the younger two. Ronnie is at an age where he wouldn’t really understand, he’d hear that word and think I was going to die.
“It was difficult telling the older boys, Harry asked me if my hair was going to fall out.
‘It’s hard because they’re still young, so I don’t know if they fully understand – which is a good thing because I don’t want to put a strain on them.’
