The style icon – who looked fabulous in head to toe leopard print – wiped away tears while answering questions about the sensitive subject of her battle with breast cancer.
The candid interview comes almost one month after Camilla shared a gut-wrenching Instagram post about her surgery and the sorrow she felt after having her ovaries removed.
On May 6, she uploaded a photo of herself lying in a hospital bed alongside Luna’s teddy bear, calling the toy her ‘comfort in a sea of sadness’.

‘I’m clinging to it like a life raft, breathing in her smell, feeling her presence and warmth. Its little furry body is soaked with a torrent of tears that I can’t seem to stop,’ she wrote in the caption.
‘I lie here with a broken heart as I recover from surgery to finally remove my ovaries. The grief and pain is excruciating. I feel as if my chest is going to burst as I mourn the loss of children I can no longer bear.’
Describing her battle with breast cancer as ‘hideous’, Camilla confessed her fight with the insidious disease is ongoing.
‘The gut-wrenching fear, sickness and debilitating rounds of immediate treatment are one thing, but it goes on,’ she continued.

‘I have a harmful BRCA2 gene variant and with that diagnosis came a horrible reality. That not only did I have to fight the breast cancer I had, I also had to prevent the future cancers I was so much more likely to get – more breast cancer, ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and others.’
She added: ‘I had to fight to save my life. A life which is so much more precious now that I have a little girl who loves and needs me.’
Camilla was first diagnosed with stage-three breast cancer only months after welcoming her daughter in January 2018.
The entrepreneur has one child: daughter Luna, three, whom she shares with fiancé J.P. Jones.
