Somers was diagnosed with breast cancer in her 50s after previously battling skin cancer in her 30s and hyperplasia in her 20s.

“I have been living with cancer since my 20s. And every time that little f—ker pops up, I continue to bat it back,” she told “Entertainment Tonight” in July. “I do my best not to let this insidious disease control me.”
