Olivia Munn was diagnosed with breast cancer one year ago and underwent a double mastectomy. Following three surgeries and reconstruction, the 43-year-old actress told People magazine that she's learning to accept the 'battle wounds' she sees every time she looks in the mirror. When Munn stepped onto the red carpet for the Vanity Fair Oscars party in March, she had not yet revealed her diagnosis or recovery process.
have some divots and dents on one side of my body near where the lymph nodes were, and they had to really dig out,' Munn said. 'And I've been wearing some dresses on the red carpet that made me a little stressed out at times.' Munn admitted that her makeup artist, Diane Buzzetta, 'learned how to do tattoo-type makeup' prior to the Oscars party which she attended with John Mulaney. The couple have a two-year-old son named Malcolm.
It’s different once you actually do the reconstruction, and it's much better, but it's not the same,' she said. 'And that's okay because I'm here, and I'm extremely happy that I had the option to have a double mastectomy. 'I'm extremely happy that I got the opportunity to fight. I was given that chance, and I know a lot of people in my situation don't have that opportunity and don't have that as an option.
