Countryfile presenter Julia Bradbury
Countryfile's Julia Bradbury has opened up about the lifestyle change she's made to prevent a recurrence of cancer. The 54 year old TV presenter, who was diagnosed with breast cancer during lockdown and underwent a single mastectomy in 2021, has completely given up alcohol - a decision that some find 'infuriating', she revealed.
Julia's life took a drastic turn due to illness, leading to financial woes and a transformation in her outlook. She reflected: "I am very, very fortunate, and overall I'm having a wonderful life. But I've had a cancer diagnosis, both my parents have had cancer, I've lost people along the way, I've had financial worries, I've had to reinvent myself and I'm not 100 per cent happy all of the time - of course not.
Although Julia now has the all-clear and goes for regular check-ups, her brush with mortality has profoundly affected her, as she explained: "I wasn't close to death, but death looked me in the eyes," she says.
