SH0CK: “Ignoring” Doctors’ advice – Sunday Brunch star cheats D3ath!
Sunday Brunch presenter Morgan McGlynn Carr has revealed she’s been diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer as she shared an emotional post on Instagram.
The TV star and author, 38, who has a regular spot as a cheese expert on the show, posted a picture of her from her hospital bed as she announced the ‘earth shattering’ news.
In October 2024, Morgan received her diagnosis after finding a lump in her right breast and received six months of weekly chemotherapy.
On two occasions doctors told the mother-of-one the lump was breast-feeding related, but after having a gut feeling something still wasn’t quite right she went for a third opinion and got her diagnosis – which she says ‘saved her life’.
Morgan has graced the screen alongside Sunday Brunch hosts Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer since 2016.
The cheese presenter confirmed she is now ‘healing’ as she joyfully admitted she received some ‘very, very good news’ following surgery last month.

Sharing her journey, she wrote: ‘On the eve of my daughter’s first birthday, I found a lump in my right breast. I’d recently stopped breastfeeding and assumed it was related.
‘But my husband made me promise to go to the doctor first thing Monday – and, by pure chance it happened to be CoppaFeel! Week. My feed was full of women talking about breast cancer.
‘The GP said it was definitely breastfeeding-related. The breast clinic consultant said she was 99% sure it was nothing.
‘I got a third opinion and that decision saved my life… Trust your gut. Always.
‘After scans, biopsies, mammograms, CTs, MRIs – in October 2024, I was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. It was nothing short of earth-shattering.
‘But we’ve done our best to keep life feeling normal as possible for our daughter. Treatment is different for every person. No two paths are the same. But here’s what happened to me:
‘I was given a week before chemo to get my ducks in a row, which included chopping my hair off and IVF and egg retrival, something I’m incredibly grateful I was able to do.
‘Then came six months of weekly chemotherapy. The hardest thing I’ve ever done. Some weeks I sat for 13 hours at a time, and I was never alone thanks to my friends who kept me company.

‘And those who’ve been through the cold cap you’ll known it’s no joke. I had to catch my breath and get through the hardest parts before sharing this. So why now?
‘Because if even one person sees this, and it prompts them to check a lump or get a second opinion, it could save a life. Please, trust your gut.’
Morgan revealed she had a successful surgery last month and received some ‘very good news’ a few days ago.
She continued: ‘Two weeks ago, I had surgery – and a few days later, we got some very, very good news.
‘I’ve not really known how to share this. To be honest, I’m still finding my feet after everything.’
Morgan added: ‘This year has changed me. There’s still a road to recovery to come – but I’m here, I’m healing, and I’m more grateful than I’ve been.’
Morgan is the UK’s leading cheese expert and owner of Cheeses of Muswell Hill, an award-winning independent cheese shop in North London.
She is also a top judge at the World Cheese Awards.
