EastEnders' Cheryl Fergison reveals secret cancer battle and discovered symptoms

EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison has made a poignant plea to other women after she opened up on her own battle with womb cancer.

At 58, Cheryl received immense support from fellow EastEnders icons Barbara Windsor and June Brown upon learning of her diagnosis, reports the Mirror. Recalling the moment she heard the diagnosis, she described it as "an out of body experience" adding: "I was in absolute shock; stunned to the core. I couldn't believe the doctor was talking about me."

Cheryl's diagnosis came shortly after her marriage to Yassine in 2011. During her MRI scans, she recounted a poignant moment: "I remember in the scanner having an earpiece in to listen to music and 'Paradise' by Coldplay was playing. I thought 'this is about as far from Paradise as it's possible to be'."
