Awww! It’s news like this that makes us turn into little balls of mush. Christina Applegateis pregnant and both she and her fiance, musician Martyn Lenoble, are over the moon. While that in itself is awesome news, consider the run that Applegate has had over the past couple of years. She was diagnosed with breast cancer and had to go through a double mastectomy followed by reconstructive surgery. It must’ve hit really close to home because she watched her mother, Nancy Priddy, go through the same disease. Applegate beat the cancer announcing, “Absolutely 100 percent clear and clean. It did not spread. They got everything out, so I’m definitely not going to die from breast cancer.”
As if that wasn’t rough enough, she dealt with the death of her ex boyfriend Lee Grivas. That’s a lot to swallow. Fortunately, Lenoble has been around providing lots of light at the end of the tunnel, she revealed, “He’s been a friend for about 13 years. Our relationship gets stronger and stronger. I’m really lucky.” The Samantha Who star also summed up her ordeals saying, “I have a small but mighty support system and Martyn has really been an incredible part of my life. Without him, I don’t know if I could’ve gone through any of it. He came around at a time when there was a lot of loss in my life on many levels, so he’s been a really incredible help.”
