Bachelorette’s Katie Thurston Reveals Breast Cancer Diagnosis

Former Bachelorette star Katie Thurston has revealed her breast cancer diagnosis after discovering a lump in her breast. She initially dismissed it as a symptom of her menstrual cycle or muscle soreness from working out.

"I had a small lump around the 10 o’clock spot," Thurston shared. "Thought maybe it was my period or muscle soreness. But, eventually, this lump never went away."

Having previously had a benign cyst removed, she assumed it was similar and delayed seeking medical attention. "Went to the doc thinking it was going to be nothing. I was wrong," she admitted.

Thurston noted that her lump was painful, which led her to doubt its severity, as many sources claim most breast cancers are painless. She described the current lump as feeling "larger," like a "ping pong ball," compared to her previous cyst, which felt like a "pea or marble."

The reality star has since detailed her treatment plans, encouraging others to get checked if they notice any unusual changes.
