Love Island runner-up Faye Winter has opened up on having a cancer scare after her fans spotted a bandage and scar on her tummy.
The 26 year old reality star, who is in a relationship with her island beau Teddy Soares, also 26, sparked concern when she posted a montage video of her posing in Anne Summers lingerie for a photoshoot.
The star looked smoking hot in a series of different underwear looks, but she also had a painful-looking scar and series of small bandages covering an area just above her belly button.
At the time, fans flocked to the comments to share their worries for the estate agent, with many asking if she was ok.
Now Faye has cleared up the situation in a video on her YouTube page, revealing that she had an operation to remove a mole after doctors feared it was cancerous.
“I am quite a moley person, I always have freckles and moles but one mole in particular has grown quite a bit since I went into the villa and it was in the sun for the whole summer," she told fans in a reflection of before she had the surgery.
“So I am just going to have it looked at because it’s a little bit abnormal.
"In fact a few of you guys have noticed it, which is another reason why I am going to go and get it checked.”
Later on in the video, Faye explained that doctors had made the decision to remove the mole.
“They have decided they are going to remove the mole, which is fine," she went on. "The first doctor said they didn’t know and then another doctor came in and she didn’t like the look of it so she said to be on the safe side lets get it taken out.”
After going under the knife, Faye told her fans that after feeling like she'd been on "Botched Bodies", she was also in quite a lot of pain.
The blonde beauty is still awaiting official results from the mole, to discover once and for all if it was cancerous.
