During an interview with WSJ Magazine, Linda Evangelista revealed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer twice in the space of 5 years. The model had her first diagnosis in
2018 and again in July of this year. She told her oncologist to “dig a hole” in her chest to “excavate” the tumor.
"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," explained Evangelista. After the procedure, Evangelista felt like she was"good and set for life," and she made it clear that she was not going to let this disease kill her.
