Overview

  • Gibson has for the first time publicly recounted discovering a large lump connected to one of her breast implants in 2023, which she feared might be cancerous.
  • Her GP examination identified the lump as implant-related, prompting her to have both implants removed last year.
  • She says the removal has given her “peace of mind” and that she harbours no regrets about the surgery.
  • The experience inspired Gibson to join forces with Tombola Bingo and Breast Cancer Now on the “eyes down, check up” initiative to normalise conversations about breast checks.
  • Gibson is currently renovating her £1.1 million home near Bath while living in an on-site caravan and has joked that the stress of the project has turned her hair grey.
