Giuliana Rancic Recovering After Double Lumpectomy

Update-Giuliana Rancic is recovering at home following her double lumpectomy   cancer surgery from Tuesday of this week.

The E! news contributor’s husband, Bill Rancic, updated her progress with Ann Curry on The Today Show this morning.

“She’s a trouper. She pulled through it and was kind of relieved to get it over with and get the cancer out. It was kind of a long day. They’re many steps in the process when you go through this because it was on both breasts.”

Through Giuliana’s battle with breast cancer, the couple still managed to remain positive stating;

“We’re viewing this as a gift. It was caught very, very early and we’re going back to the doctor tomorrow. They had to remove a couple of lymph nodes and we’re hoping we get a report tomorrow.”

Rancic went on by acknowledging the difficulty they’ve encountered thus far regarding conception by stating he wish he could shoulder more of the burden.

“Between the in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments and now with this, I wish I could carry some of the load. I wish I could take some of the pain away”

With the worst part behind this resilient couple, they remained optimistic while heading into a post-op check-up with Giuliani’s doctor tomorrow.

Rancic also added that Giuliana hopes to return to work at E! next week and said that they are both very excited for the possibilities that lie ahead.

“We’re going to kick off 2012 with a new outlook on life, and we’re ready to take on the world.”

With support like this it’s no wonder Giuliana referred to him as “unbelievable”. Get well soon Giuliana!

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
