Hollyoaks Star Ali Bastian Reveals Stage Two Breast Cancer Diagnosis

British actress Alexandra Louise Bastian, widely known for her role in Hollyoaks, has announced that she is battling stage two breast cancer. In a heartfelt Instagram post on Monday, the 42-year-old actress shared the shocking news, revealing that she received the diagnosis while still breastfeeding.

Describing the experience as an unexpected blow, Bastian said she is undergoing chemotherapy and will later have a single mastectomy followed by radiotherapy.

“It was a complete shock. Some mornings I wake up and forget, but then it hits me again, and I’m still coming to terms with it,” she wrote. Bastian explained that she initially thought the symptoms were related to breastfeeding, but when they didn’t clear up, she grew concerned. “The more I felt it, the more I knew it wasn’t just a blocked duct.”

Following her instincts, she consulted her doctor and promptly asked for a referral to a specialist clinic. “My GP was very supportive, and I’m grateful for that,” she added.

Fans have since flooded her social media with messages of support, wishing her strength through her treatment and recovery.
