Christina Applegate 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’.
