Samantha Harris is cancer free after a year-long battle with the disease.
The 40-year-old former Dancing With The Stars presenter underwent a ‘gruelling’ double mastectomy to treat breast cancer back in May.
Speaking to people, she said: “When I officially got past my second stage of reconstruction surgery, which was the third surgery I’d had this year, and I reached that six-week mark after surgery, that was when I got the all clear.”
The brunette beauty – who has children Josselyn, seven, and Hilary, three, with her husband Michael Hess – has been able to get back into her day-to-day routine but admits she’ll be on an Estrogen blocker, Tamoxifen, “for the next five to 10 years potentially.”
She explained: “I’m back at the gym full-throttle, like I was before, which is exciting. The only thing I can’t do now are push-ups – this sounds a little strange that I really like to do push-ups, but I did back in the day.
“And eating as healthy as I always have. I was focusing on my health and recovery, and now that I’m physically top notch and at 100 per cent now, my focus is changing to look at nutrition.”
