Jennifer Saunders has fought and won a battle with breast cancer.
The 52-year-old Absolutely Fabulous star and creator says she’s been fighting the disease since discovering a lump in her breast nine months ago. She said she was given the all clear last month, and celebrated by showing off her new buzz cut.
The mother of three, Saunders became a gay favorite with her role as Edina Monsoon on Ab Fab. More recently she’s been known for her voice-over work in films including Shrek 2 and Coraline.
