The supermodel opened up about her privately battling breast cancer in an interview with the Wall Street Journal
Evangelista said that she was diagnosed with breast cancer in December 2018 after it was detected in her annual mammogram. “The margins were not good, and due to other health factors, without hesitation, because I wanted to put everything behind me and not to have to deal with this, I opted for a bilateral mastectomy. Thinking I was good and set for life. Breast cancer was not going to kill me.”
The veteran supermodel ordered her surgeon to “dig a hole” in her chest. “I don’t want it to look pretty,” she recalled saying. “I want you to excavate. … Do you understand me? I’m not dying from this.”
