The star’s pic went down a storm with fans who thanked Julia for being so open.

One fan wrote: “You look amazing. Thank you for for highlighting and openly talking about this. Last year I had a lumpectomy, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Some friends stopped talking to me once they found out my diagnosis. It’s a hard journey but it can be made easier talking about it.”

The much-loved presenter is making a documentary for ITV to raise more awareness about cancer and how each diagnosis affects a person differently.

Julia explained that while survival rates were improving – the treatment was “brutal”.

Issuing a plea to her followers she said: “Check yourself… I discovered a lump but had two mammograms that didn’t reveal my lump as cancerous due to my dense breasts.

“Be body aware and trust your instincts.”
