Sarah Beeny shows off her growing hair amid breast cancer battle

Sarah Beeny showed off her new ‘platinum’ hair on Instagram on Thursday as she continues to fight breast cancer.

The 51-year-old host and property expert couldn’t contain her smile as she looked over her shoulder at the camera, displaying her short natural locks.

She looked stunning with a radiant makeup palette and opted for a black turtleneck.

The mother-of-four, who was diagnosed with breast cancer last year, shaved off her hair after it fell out when she started therapy.

Sarah wrote: ‘Look my hair has grown back all platinum! Xxxx #naturalblonde!’

The post comes after Sarah honored a brain tumor research charity earlier this month while lighting a candle with her son.

Sarah was diagnosed with breast cancer in August of last year and lost her mother to the disease when she was ten years old.

He started chemotherapy treatment last year, but recently revealed that his last session was canceled after his white blood cell count was too low and his liver levels were too high.

Sharing the clip on Instagram, he wrote: #shinealight to @braintumourrsch thank you for the amazing work you do! Xx ps @nickyjohnston awesome candle you made thank you so much Xx’

Sarah could be seen next to her son in a dimly lit room with a candle in the middle of the table.

She said in the video: “We are lighting a candle for brain tumor research.”

Sarah then instructs her son to light the candle with a blowtorch.

Joking, he adds later, “maybe we should use a match next time.”

Sarah was recently photographed in the hospital receiving further treatment for her breast cancer, receiving special ‘tattoos’ as part of the procedure.

She received treatment at the Royal Marsden and Yeovil hospitals, and posed for the camera while showing off some of the marks she received before receiving her latest procedure.

She frowned playfully as she pointed out her new ink marks on her breasts from before the treatment.

Treatment: Sarah revealed in 2022 that she was diagnosed with cancer after finding a lump, which led to a biopsy. She also lost her mother to her illness when she was ten years old.

Tribute: Earlier this month, Sarah honored a brain tumor research charity while lighting a candle with her son.

Her children proudly posted a photo of their spunky mom on their Instagram and joked that she now had some new tattoos.

Posting on their page for their indie band The Entitled Sons, they wrote: ‘Mom finally got some tattoos!

‘Many thanks to @royalmarsdennhs and @yeovil_hospital_nhs for looking after her so unbelievably brilliant. #tattoo #mom.’

Followers sent their well wishes with one reading: ‘Sending love and healing to your mother and you lovely children. Your mom is fucking amazing.

Another added: ‘Sending love to all of you. Remember having similar tattoos to myself.

A third asked: ‘Are you receiving radiation, Sarah?’

And a fourth added: “Sending big hugs and love to all of you, wow Sarah kick cancer’s butt she’s got this she’s in the best hospital in the UK for this they did remarkable things for a friend of mine who had seven tumors in the brain. Survived!! @royalmarsden.’

Sarah recently revealed that she would be undergoing radiation and a mastectomy this year.

She has been keeping her fans updated through Instagram as she continues to work from home amid her battle with breast cancer.

Tough: Sarah started chemotherapy treatment last year, but recently revealed that her last session was canceled after her white blood cell count was too low and her liver levels too high.

Family: Sarah has sons Charlie, 16, Billy, 18, Rafferty, 14 and Laurie, 12, with husband of 19 years Graham Swift

Last month, she announced that she had finished chemotherapy by sharing a photo of her children’s CD cover.

Sarah wrote: ‘Not sure what makes the sun shine brighter: 2 days on steroids (happy pills!), no more chemo or @the_entitled_sons releasing their best song yet…

‘YES Friday IS a good day xx #finishedchemo #HEAVENKNOWS @nickyjohnston (sic)’.

In the summer of 2022, Sarah revealed that she was diagnosed with cancer after finding a lump, which led to a biopsy.

They told him that the cancer had not spread and that “there is an 80 percent chance of a cure.”

The star’s mother had breast cancer that spread to her brain and died at 39, when Sarah was ten.

Sarah admitted that she had a ‘little nervous breakdown’ in the consulting room, but explained to the nurse: ‘You don’t understand. I have waited 40 years to hear those words. I knew I would hear it one day.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world, affecting more than two MILLION women each year.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world. Each year in the UK there are more than 55,000 new cases, and the disease claims the lives of 11,500 women. In the US it attacks 266,000 each year and kills 40,000. But what causes it and how can it be treated?

What is breast cancer?

Breast cancer develops from a cancer cell that develops in the lining of a duct or lobe in one of the breasts.

When breast cancer has spread to surrounding breast tissue, it is called ‘invasive’ breast cancer. Some people are diagnosed with ‘carcinoma in situ’, where no cancer cells have grown beyond the duct or lobule.

Most cases develop in women over the age of 50, but younger women are sometimes affected. Breast cancer can develop in men, although this is rare.

Staging means how big the cancer is and whether it has spread. Stage 1 is the earliest stage, and stage 4 means the cancer has spread to another part of the body.

Cancer cells are classified from low, which means slow growing, to high, which is fast growing. High-grade cancers are more likely to come back after they are first treated.

What causes breast cancer?

A cancerous tumor starts from an abnormal cell. The exact reason why a cell becomes cancerous is not clear. It is thought that something damages or alters certain genes in the cell. This causes the cell to be abnormal and multiply ‘out of control’.

Although breast cancer can develop for no apparent reason, there are some risk factors that can increase the chance of developing breast cancer, such as genetics.

What are the symptoms of breast cancer?

The usual first symptom is a painless lump in the breast, although most breast lumps are non-cancerous and are fluid-filled cysts, which are benign.

The first place that breast cancer usually spreads is the lymph nodes in the armpit. If this happens, you will develop a swelling or lump in one armpit.

How is breast cancer diagnosed?

  • Initial evaluation: A doctor examines the breasts and armpits. They may do tests such as a mammogram, a special x-ray of breast tissue that can indicate the possibility of tumors.
  • Biopsy: A biopsy is when a small sample of tissue is removed from a part of the body. The sample is then examined under a microscope to look for abnormal cells. The sample can confirm or rule out cancer.

If you are confirmed to have breast cancer, more tests may be needed to see if it has spread. For example, blood tests, an ultrasound of the liver, or a chest X-ray.

How is breast cancer treated?

Treatment options that may be considered include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and hormone treatment. Often a combination of two or more of these treatments is used.

  • Surgery: Breast-conserving surgery or removal of the affected breast depending on the size of the tumor.
  • Radiation therapy: A treatment that uses high-energy radiation beams focused on cancerous tissue. This kills cancer cells or stops cancer cells from dividing. It is mainly used in addition to surgery.
  • Chemotherapy: Treatment of cancer using anticancer drugs that kill cancer cells or stop them from dividing.
  • Hormonal treatments: Some types of breast cancer are affected by the “female” hormone estrogen, which can stimulate cancer cells to divide and multiply. Treatments that lower the level of these hormones, or stop them from working, are commonly used in people with breast cancer.

How successful is the treatment?

The prognosis is better in those who are diagnosed when the cancer is still small and has not spread. Surgical removal of a tumor at an early stage can provide a good chance of cure.

Routine mammography offered to women ages 50 to 70 means more breast cancers are diagnosed and treated at an early stage.
