A random health check had led to doctors discovering a 'little shadow'

Former EastEnders actress Samantha Womack has announced she is cancer-free just five months after a diagnosis of breast cancer.

Just five months ago, Sam was diagnosed with cancer but previously admitted that she had not spotted any symptoms and a random health check led to doctors discovering a "little shadow". "The first round of chemotherapy was pretty hardcore really, it was quite toxic – we were lucky because I got to recover in Spain, Ollie and Wallie were picking me up from the airport in Valencia.Samantha said that everything happened pretty quickly, and after having an ultrasound scan as a precaution, admitting she was "lucky".

"The mad thing about cancer when you have it, is you understand there are so many different roads, different diagnoses, it is a terrifying world. It's terrifying at the beginning but if there was ever a time to have it, there are so many new treatments now that are changing the face of cancer, it's amazing."
