Elle Macpherson makes bombshell cancer claim and reveals she's in 'utter wellness' despite top doctor's ominous warning


Elle Macpherson has addressed her breast cancer battle in a candid interview with 60 Minutes Australia on Sunday.

The Australian model was diagnosed with breast cancer seven years ago but revealed the diagnosis for the first time in an interview on Monday, before expanding on her journey and the hard decisions she made during the 60 Minutes chat. Her comments have proved to be divisive, with one doctor slamming Elle for promoting 'holistic' treatment while many celebrities have also weighed in on the debate, including MAFS expert Mel Schilling, who is battling colon cancer. Dr Liz O'Riordan, former Consultant Oncoplastic Surgeon at Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust, discussed the dangers of alternative cancer therapies on ITV's Lorraine, saying Elle likely didn't understand the 'ripple effect' of her remarks.
