Autumnwatch star Michaela Strachan, 56, was sadly diagnosed with lobular breast cancer in 2014, and she plucked up the courage to have a double mastectomy for the sake of her health.

Back in 2017, the BBC presenter confessed that she was struggling to bond with her new breasts, which no longer felt like a part of her body.

The TV host lamented in unearthed quotes from an appearance on Loose Women: "They're as hard as coconuts, I find it very difficult to love them."She added: "They don't look the same, they’ve gone a bit wonky."Michaela even confided that her breasts had become so hard that she could bounce on a trampoline without them moving at all.The star then cupped her breasts on the show, explaining that she no longer felt self-conscious about touching them in front of people, as she felt so disassociated from them."Isn't it funny, I can hold my breasts on television because they're not mine?" she exclaimed.Nadia Sawalha, who campaigns for body confidence via her Instagram account, followed suit as a show of solidarity, encouraging: "Let's all do it!"Rod Stewart's wife Penny Lancaster, who has decided post-menopause to join the police, added at the time: "It's so important, we should all be feeling our breasts!"The leopard-print clad star - who twinned animal prints for both her shirt and her blazer - then cupped her own, as did fellow panellist Andrea McLean.Michaela continued by trying to find the silver lining in the suffering she'd been through since her cancer diagnosis."Yes I've got hard boobs and I can bounce on a trampoline and nothing happens, but apart from that my life hasn't been compromised," she reflected."I feel very fit, very well, very healthy and very happy."Her calm demeanour during the 2017.
