  • The operation, performed at Heatherwood Hospital, was preventative, and pathology results confirmed no malignancy, giving her peace of mind.
  • Kelly returned to her ITV shows on May 19, expressing gratitude to her NHS surgical team and advocating for early ovarian health checks.
  • She shared her recovery challenges, including being unable to lift her granddaughter Billie until the end of the month, but stated she feels well and is following medical advice to take it easy.
