“I am determined to do everything I can to help raise awareness by sharing my experience. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023 and melanoma, an aggressive form of skin cancer, this year and if it hadn't been for the diligence and care of my doctors, my situation could have been much worse,” Sarah said.

The author went on to say: “It was a busy 2023 and I almost postponed my routine mammogram, but my sister Jane convinced me to go. “After undergoing a mastectomy and reconstruction, I could only hope to be safe and sound, so a new diagnosis of skin cancer came as a shock to me.”

Regarding support from apparently Prince Andrew and his daughters Princess Eugenie and Beatrice, Sarah said: “I am now in the best of hands and feel positive with the support of my family.”

He also urged that days can make the difference between life and death, “so please do not skip or postpone your health checks and urge your loved ones to come to yours.”
