29 January 2024<\/time>\n<\/p>\nMarie Helvin has no interest in dating until she’s fully “healed” after her battle with breast cancer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Marie Helvin is happy to stay single<\/p>\n
The 71-year-old model – who was previously married to photographer David Bailey – was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022 after she found a lump on her right breast and she later underwent a mastectomy followed by reconstructive surgery – and she’s now revealed she’s put her love life on hold until she feels totally better.<\/p>\n
She told the Sunday Telegraph newspaper: “I\u2019m very single. And I\u2019m not really interested at the moment. Maybe later when the healing process has really kicked in;\u00a0 I might think about it then. But at the moment I\u2019m not interested, I am more interested in my progress.”<\/p>\n
Marie also spoke about her experience with reconstructive surgery and declared she’s very impressed with the results overall.<\/p>\n
She explained: “It\u2019s amazing how it looks, how it feels \u2013 they can do fantastic things today. I mean, it\u2019s not perfect. I don\u2019t have cleavage on one side, I now travel with a \u2018chicken fillet\u2019 to all my photoshoots.”<\/p>\n
\nMarie previously admitted being diagnosed with the deadly disease came as a huge shock because she was convinced she was very healthy because she eats well and works out.<\/p>\n
\nShe told the Daily Mail newspaper: “I had a vision, an idea of myself, I suppose, of how fit and healthy I was. <\/p>\n
\n“As a model, my body was my instrument and I have always looked after it. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I exercise every day, so I guess it made me think that something like this could not happen to me because I didn’t fit the profile.<\/p>\n
\n“Now I know what a lot of rubbish that is. It’s made me realise that appearances are deceiving.”<\/p>\n
\nMarie drew on her experience from her mother’s battle with the disease during the 1980s and went into “survival mode” following her diagnosis. <\/p>\n
\nShe added to the outlet: “I was determined not to panic. It helped that I had helped nurse my mum through breast cancer in the 1980s – returning to Hawaii for a month to look after her. <\/p>\n
\n“So I’d seen what it looked like and what she had experienced, but also that she made it through and survived another 25 years. So, of course, I was scared, but not as scared as someone who has never witnessed anyone going through that. I made a choice to place my faith and myself.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
