Charlotte Crosby has thanked fans for their incredible support after revealing her mum's cancer diagnosis.
The pregnant former Geordie Shore star, 32, was left devastated earlier this year after discovering her mum Letitia had been diagnosed with breast cancer after going for her routine mammogram.
She went on to discover a lump in her own breast just days after her mum's diagnosis.
Taking to Instagram Stories today, Charlotte said: "Hi everyone. I just wanted to say a huge, huge, huge thank you for all of your kind messages, all of the love, all of the support about the recent article about me mam.
"Honestly, I've had so many messages I'm overwhelmed and I know that me mam is too. She is out today for a fun day with her friends, which she's been looking forward to.
"But I know she wants to go on her Instagram tomorrow and thank everyone personally. So yeah, thank you so, so much. It means so much to both me and me mam and all of our family. So thank you so, so, so much."
It comes up after Charlotte and her mum spoke about the diagnosis and are calling upon the government to lower the age of mammogram screening invitations after 53-year-old Letitia prepares to start chemotherapy and radiotherapy next month.
Speaking about her experience, Letitia explained: “It was just a routine mammogram, I have never missed one. When they told me it was cancer I was floored.
“I had no symptoms, no lumps, nothing. The mammogram has helped save my life – they should be inviting women of all ages to one every single year. Not just women over 50," she continued to The Sun.
“Mam had no symptoms. There were no signs," Charlotte added, before revealing that she also found a lump in her breast too.
“I became so much more aware of my own body. And then I found a lump literally just after mum was diagnosed," she said.
