Sad news coming from Hollywood today. Giuliana Rancic, TV host for the E! Network and star of her own reality show, Giuliana and Bill, revealed that she has breast cancer. Rancic, 37, made the announcement Monday morning on an appearance on The Today Show. Rancic and husband Bill have been very open about their journey to parenthood, which has included IVF and a devastating miscarriage. The couple- who have been married for four years – were gearing up for round three of IVF when their doctor insisted Rancic get a mammogram. Because Rancic has no history of breast cancer in her family, she admitted she “wasn’t prepared to get a mammogram until I was 40 years old. I never in my wildest dreams expected anything to be wrong.”
The discovery of the tumor happened in August, and Rancic is preparing for surgery and then six and a half weeks of radiation. She assured fans that the cancer was caught in the “early stages” and will not give up on having a baby. “That baby will have saved my life. There’s some master plan. Now I know that [God] was looking out for me.”
She continues on to say, “I think a lot of us think we’re invincible. We have to start putting ourselves on the to do list.”
