ITV Coronation Street Victoria Ekanoye opens up about breast cancer battle Victoria Ekanoye has issued an important plea about cancer after a horrific ordeal with the illness.
Victoria's frightening ordeal comes amidst 56,822 new cases of breast cancer every year, according to Cancer Research statistics.
But Victoria was more apprehensive, she continued: "I guess, you know, part of what I do for a living is we have to look at people's micro-expressions and body language and pick up these things, as an actress.
She was not avoiding it - because she she knew she had to [say something] - but I guess she was trying to softly bring her presence into the room... And [she was] like, 'Okay, look, I'm not gonna beat around the bush, we have found cancerous cells'.
"I remember being on set for Death in Paradise and I was just adjusting my microphone, because they put it on different parts of your clothing to kind of obscure it, and I was just adjusting my mic, and I felt a second lump in the same breast.
