“I want to share a personal health update,” she began.
“I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer,” she continued, adding:
“While this isn’t news anyone expects, I’m working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan.
“I would like to thank my doctors for performing a procedure earlier this week on me. I am staying focused and hopeful while surrounded by the love and support of my family, my kids, and those closest to me.
“Thank you for your kindness and support it truly means more than I can express. I kindly ask for privacy as I focus on my health and recovery.”

“He’s like the hottest bachelor of Palm Beach. He’s the biggest golfer in the world, and he’s a gazillionaire. There aren’t that many options.”
