Charley said: “I went to the doctor’s last week because I’ve been having this pain in my boob, which I know is really personal but I wanted to talk about it because I put it off for ages.
“I put it off and put it off because I was so worried about going into them with anything at the moment, with everything going on.”
In addition, Charley explained: “I’m really glad that I did it. The hospital was dead.
“She said they’re only seeing people if they really need to. And cause I had to be examined she had to see me.”
