The Love Island star kept fans updated

The girlfriend of boxer Tommy Fury has a Youtube channel, and previously explained to fans that she'd been referred for a biopsy after discovering a benign lump in her breast had grown. She said at the time: "I basically noticed a little lump in my boob, went to get it checked and it was completely fine, completely benign.

It's a little thing called a fibroadenoma and it's a normal thing to get at this age, small lumps can happen all the time it doesn't mean they're sinister.'
