Myleene Klass has opened up about her recent cancer scare after she found two lumps in her breasts.

The TV presenter, 48, took to Instagram on Tuesday as she urged women to check themselves after she found a lump by chance while at Wimbledon watching the tennis back in June.

Assuring fans she is ok after receiving the all clear, she described the experience as 'sobering, humbling and terrifying'.

In a lengthy caption she began: 'Girls. A massive reminder to check yourselves. I accidentally felt a lump when I was at Wimbledon watching the tennis. I casually folded my arms and there it was. Then a second one.

'The subsequent days went both quickly and agonisingly slowly.

'3 cysts and 3 lymph nodes later, I’m ok BUT the days of waiting meant I reorganised my life into a new set of priorities and ‘what ifs’ only to thankfully get the all clear and then experience the weird ‘reordering’ of going back to ‘normal’.'

'I have close friends going through similar experiences atm and it’s sobering, humbling and terrifying.

'It’s the having kids that anyone who experiences anything near this will know to be the first and final concern.'

Myleene has been open in the past about how she suffered four miscarriages in the past and she revealed having an ultrasound again was challenging.

She wrote: 'I haven’t seen an ultrasound since my multiple MC’s and that too was pretty sobering.

'All this to say, as a fierce advocate for women’s health and not hiding what’s uncomfortable, right now, check yourself and go get a second opinion.

'Kudos and eternal thanks to @the_mutha_ship who moved mountains lighting fast to get me seen and sorted and didn’t take her foot off the gas. To those who don’t have a Sev, look at this as your prompt from me. Check yourselves. x'

Myleene's best friend and fellow presenter Lauren Laverne revealed earlier this month that she had been diagnosed with a rare blood and bone marrow disorder.

The diagnosis comes two years after she publicly announced she was battling cancer in August 2024, before being given the 'all-clear' in the following November.

Lauren previously disclosed in the interview that she had always been anxious about the possibility of developing cancer, especially after losing her mother to terminal cancer in 2022.

Talking about how she caught her cancer early, she explained: 'It was something I'd always been anxious about. Especially if you have family members who've been through it.

'You have a sort of watchfulness about your own health, which is obviously why I got tested for everything and why it was picked up, thank God, so early on.'
