The actress and director Angelina Jolie has revealed she’s had a double mastectomy.
She had the operation after finding out she carried a gene that made it highly likely that she would get breast cancer.
The Hollywood actor finished three months of surgical procedures to remove both breasts and get reconstructive surgery.
