Speaking exclusively to HELLO!, she said: "I really hope [those attending and contributing] appreciate what their generosity has meant in the breast cancer world, that progress has been made by scientists and mortality has decreased by 42% since the 80s.
"But I also hope that they remember that one in eight women are still diagnosed with breast cancer and the fight isn't over. We hope they go away full of hope and full of the desire to continue to help!"
