Olivia Munn has revealed that she has been privately battling breast cancer since April 2023. Munn said in a statement posted to social media that she has had “four surgeries and more days in bed than I can count” since her diagnosis. Furthermore, Munn revealed that she had chosen to keep her battle private so she could “get through some of the hardest parts before sharing.”

Additionally, Munn’s statement was one of thanks. She shared gratitude to everyone from her family to her doctors. However, one paragraph was reserved for comedian John Mulaney. Mulaney and Munn share a young son, Malcolm. “I’m so thankful to John for the nights he spent researching what every operation and medication meant and what side effects and recovery I could expect. For being there before I went into each surgery and being there when I woke up. [He] always placed framed photos of our little boy Malcolm so it would be the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes,” Munn wrote.

Aside from that, SZA also suffers from fibrosis, thickening and scarring of connective tissue. “When I got my boobs done, my doctor took out some of my fibrosis, but… there was so much fibrosis. It was cr*zy… And he took it out. And so, when I went back, a lot of the concerns were gone,” she explains. “I have markers in my breast, like metal markers in my breast for these fibrosis, for these lumps or whatever, I’m not supposed to be getting breast implants.”

Ultimately, she decided to get them removed due to the pain the implants were causing her. “So basically, I put them in. They ended up hurting me,” she describes. “I got way too much scar tissue because my breasts are too dense and I’m not supposed to have breast implants. And so I ended up getting extra fibrosis like with tissue, whatever, and I didn’t feel good and it was painful. So, I took them out, and now, they’re just my boobs.” What do you think of SZA’s explanation for removing her breast implants? What about her opening up about her mother’s breast cancer diagnosis?
