Maria Menounos is opening up about her scary battle with pancreatic cancer and welcoming her first baby via surrogacy earlier this year.
Menounos’ baby girl, Athena, was born on June 23 after 10 years of fertility struggles.
Ahead of the birth, the TV personality, 45, was battling cancer and told Et Canada’s Cheryl Hickey how she didn’t think she was going to make it to see her little one be born at one point.
“I thought that I was not going to make it. And my husband and I had conversations like, ‘okay, if this is what’s going to happen, this is what I would want.'”
The “Heal Squad x Maria Menounos” podcast host recalled, “It was a really scary time. Hearing you have a large mass on your pancreas is one of the most terrifying moments I think you can have.
“Initially I thought that I was not going to make it.
