RADIO host and presenter Brittany Hockley has revealed she is undergoing pre-cancer treatment.
The Aussie star, who is dating Hoops goalkeeper Benjamin Siegrist, is undergoing treatment after noticing unusual spots on her cheeks.
A specialist found the blemishes were solar keratosis, which is a form of pre-cancer.
She is now undergoing cytotoxic treatment to prevent the growth of the patching and to stop cancer cells from forming.
Speaking on KIIS FM's The Pick Up earlier this week, she revealed she is one week into treatment which has left her face "red and peeling".
She said: "I'm sharing a lot about the process because [of] the fact two in three Aussies will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.
"That is absolutely huge."
She says since starting treatment, she has discovered she had more pre-cancerous spots than she was initially aware of.
She continued: "The idea with this cream is it pulls up all the bad spots and the areas that have inflamed and taken more.
"There are way more than three spots which is a scary thing."
The Daily Mail reports Brittany and Benjamin met in November last year on dating app Raya.
