Erin Andrews is probably the biggest female name in sports television. Andrews has been a staple with ESPN as a sideline reporter and has been working with FOX during the playoffs and will be covering the upcoming Super Bowl. To say that Andrews has had a rough go over the last few years would be an understatement. After having gone through a horrible time when a “stalker” peeped on Andrews in a hotel room, Andrews revealed that it changed her life and how she views her own body. Erin Andrews has just revealed another thing about herself.
During the entire NFL season Andrews has been battling cervical cancer. The reason you’d never know this is because she hasn’t missed a single game. The FOX broadcaster was diagnosed with cervical cancer in late September after a routine check up in June, she told Sports Illustrated’s MMQB.com. The 38-year-old told her oncologists just moments before undergoing surgery that she would not watch “any football games at home.” “This is [FOX’s] Super Bowl year, and I’m not missing the Super Bowl,” Andrews recalled telling her doctor.
Andrews’ diagnosis came just months after she settled with two hotel companies that were found partially to blame for a stalker posting secretly recorded nude video of her on the internet.
Her first surgery came on Oct 11th, a second one in November and only two weeks later her doctors revealed she was clear. Andrews is one of the busiest women on television. Not only does she commit to sports like no other reporter, she’s also co-host of Dancing with the Stars.
If women out there should be looking towards any professional for inspiration, it’s certainly Erin Andrews. The one positive we can in fact report on with Andrews is that in 2016 she got engaged to long time boyfriend Jarret Stoll. Hopefully the couple can relax for a while after the Super Bowl ends.
