On today's episode of Loose Women, things got emotional when Penny Lancaster broke down in tears. Her co-hosts Nadia Sawalha, Charlene White, and Frankie Bridge joined her to discuss the topic of breast cancer and how it has personally affected them.
Penny opened up about her close group of friends, whom she calls her "secret circle." She even shared a picture of the group, which included her maid-of-honour Louise, who happens to be Rod Stewart's sister. As she began to talk about her friends, Penny became overwhelmed with emotions and started to cry.
Charlene immediately rose from her seat and rushed to comfort her friend. Penny struggled to compose herself, but with the support of her co-hosts, she was able to continue. Nadia asked Penny about her sister-in-law Louise, and Penny confirmed that she was indeed the one in the picture.
Penny explained that Louise was diagnosed with breast cancer 14 years ago and that she and her secret circle did a walk to support her. She praised Louise's strength and resilience, and how she never shed a tear throughout her battle with cancer. Penny then shared that she found out she was pregnant while Louise was going through her treatment, and it was a bittersweet moment for both of them.
The topic of breast cancer hits close to home for Penny, as she has seen firsthand the effects it can have on a person. She also emphasized the importance of self-checks for women under 50, as it was the only way Louise discovered her lump. Penny also mentioned that there is a misconception that breast cancer is painless, but Louise felt pain and was able to catch it early.
Louise has previously spoken about her experience with breast cancer, and how she discovered a lump on the same day that Penny and her brother Rod Stewart found out they were expecting a baby. She described the moment she found the lump and how it led to a stage three breast cancer diagnosis. However, with treatment, she was able to overcome it.
The topic of breast cancer is important to Penny and her friends, and they want to spread awareness and encourage women to do self-checks. As the discussion came to an end, the hosts reminded viewers that if they have a story related to breast cancer or any other topic, they can share it with the entertainment team at The Agency.
