US EditionOlivia Munn, Who Has Been Open About Her Breast Cancer Journey, Says Her Mom Was Diagnosed, Too | News Channel 3-12
UNITED STATES, JUL 9 – Olivia Munn urged her mother to get an ultrasound after a high-risk score led to a Stage 1 Her2 breast cancer diagnosis despite a clear mammogram, highlighting screening limits.
- On July 9, 2024, Olivia Munn revealed on Instagram that her mother, Kim Munn, received a Stage 1 HER2-positive breast cancer diagnosis after a clear mammogram earlier that year.
- Olivia Munn’s use of the Tyrer-Cuzick Risk Assessment tool, which estimated her elevated chance of developing breast cancer, led to her 2023 diagnosis of luminal B breast cancer and prompted her mother to undergo further screening after a similarly high risk score resulted in the detection of her Stage 1 HER2 breast cancer following an MRI.
- Kim underwent a double mastectomy and completed 12 cycles of chemotherapy, with plans to receive Herceptin treatments each month through the autumn, while Olivia expressed admiration for her mother’s strength throughout the process.
- Olivia expressed the difficulty of cancer, especially watching loved ones suffer, and urged women aged 30 or older to take the risk assessment test, quoting her physician Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi's recommendation.
- Olivia’s experience highlights the test’s importance for early cancer detection, as she credited it with saving both her and her mother’s lives, while encouraging others to be proactive about screening.
