Myleene Klass broke down in tears on Loose Women today as she spoke about her best friend Lauren Laverne’s cancer diagnosis
Myleene Klass was in tears on Loose Women today as she spoke about her Lauren Laverne’s cancer diagnosis.
The Loose Women star was in tears as the panel started the show by discussing Lauren’s diagnosis. The One Show presenter and radio star shared a selfie from her hospital bed today, where she wrote: “I recently had a cancer diagnosis. It was (thank God) caught early and unexpectedly during a screening test and I am expected to make a full recovery. I ‘m in hospital at the moment and wanted to take this moment to say thank you: firstly to medical teams who have got me this far with incredible skill and kindness.
“To my family and friends who have been absolutely extraordinary every step of the way – I am so very grateful and love you so much. And of course thank you to my colleagues…. for their support and for giving me the time off that I need to get better.”
Lauren and Myleene are great friends
As she spoke at the start of the show, Myleene was clapped by the audience as she broke down in tears, with the panel reassuring her. She kept saying Lauren would be angry at her for crying, but she was just devastated to hear of her diagnosis.
“She’s gonna tell me off,” Myleene said, as she spoke of how brave her friend is. “She’s my best friend. I’m so glad we get to see what an incredible woman she is. But please get tested,” she said, urging others.
Lauren took to Instagram earlier today to urge others to get tested and not put off their appointments.
“If you’re avoiding a test or putting off an appointment to get yourself checked out please, please do it today. Half of us will get cancer at some point, and if you do, finding out asap is everything,” she said, “It’s usually my job to bring the good vibes on air but any you have to spare are very much welcome here. Sending loads of love to anyone in a similar boat, or who has made it back to shore.”

She recalled: “I went to the loo while the music was playing and there was blood everywhere. I didn’t know what to do. I had one hour left of my show. I rang Lauren and she said: “Do one link, take a breath, come out and call me. Lauren got me through. I did the next link and called her. We counted the links. I would go out, sob and come back in, take a deep breath and speak. I don’t know what I would have done [without her].”
