Christine Applefate has been bravely outspoken about her battle with breast cancer. But, the Samantha Who? star reveals, she wasn’t always so forthcoming. "I went back to work for about five weeks right after the second surgery," Applegate tells Ellen Degeneres on Friday’s show. She adds, "I didn’t tell anyone [about the diagnosis]."
Actually, she did share the news with a few members of her inner circle. I told my make-up and hair people and people that are really close to me …," she explains. "I had a protection wall [on set], so that no one was pushing me."
The 36-year-old was diagnosed with an early form of breast cancer earlier this year. She is now cancer free after undergoing a double mastectomy.
She and DeGeneres recently bonded at the Stand Up to Cancer fund-raiser. Source
