In March, women’s tennis icon Martina Navratilova announced that she had won her battle against both breast and throat cancer. To celebrate Navratilova’s successful recovery from her dual cancer diagnosis, Julia Lemigova, Navratilova’s wife, hosted a joyous event. Lemigova, who is a ‘The Real Housewives of Miami’ star, invited several high-profile names. Among them was her Real Housewives of Miami housemate Guerdy Abraira.
Abraira herself, recently, revealed publicly that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. However, despite her breast cancer diagnosis, she remains upbeat. Abraira was in high spirits at Lemigova’s event, and she took to Instagram to share a post that reflected her positive outlook.
