Wanda Nara broke down in tears as she discussed her ongoing cancer battle while appearing on Dancing with the Stars. 

The wife of Mauro Icardi, who boasts more than 17 million followers on Instagram, could not hold back her tears as she reflected on her illness, which was diagnosed during the summer.  

The model and businesswoman had had a routine check-up when there was an ‘abnormal’ finding, soon leading to a leukemia diagnosis. 

‘I had to travel to Milan. Whenever I go there I do some routine tests. The results were abnormal and the doctors began to see things,’ she explained.

‘I was crying without knowing what it even was. My children were so sad.

‘When they invited me to be on ‘Dancing with the Stars’, obviously the situation was more stable.

‘Before signing the contract, I asked the doctors whether I could accept while receiving treatment. They told me ‘yes, 100 per cent, do it’.

‘I believe it is an example for my children and when they see this experience, especially the younger ones who did not understand what was happening to their mum. They will feel like everything is fine.’

She concluded: ‘I’m dancing to show that I’m fine.’

Nara, who is also a football agent, is the star of the latest series and has been inundated with interview requests, specifically to get a better understanding of her mindset amid a rocky relationship with Icardi and now her serious illness battle.

ln an interview with Corriere della Sera last week, she said of the disease: ‘It was a totally unexpected turning point. I’m trying to live with the same strength as before, valuing life every day.

‘I have always thought that nothing matters more than health, now obviously more. And I want to be with the people I love, not worry about bulls***, that’s the most important thing.’

She went on to add: ‘I had the worst thoughts, especially as a mother. But it’s also the reason why she made me react quickly: I feel like I’m the driving force of my family, if I fall everyone falls, like dominoes.’
