Emmerdale's Lisa Riley has bravely opened up about her decision not to take a cancer test, despite her character's recent storyline and her own family history. In the recents scenes in the soap, the Dingle family were told they might carry a faulty gene that causes cancer, following Chas' breast cancer diagnosis. As a result of the news, they were all urged to get tested quickly.
In real life too, 47 year old Lisa, who plays Mandy Dingle, was told she might have the same gene after her mum Cath sadly died from breast cancer 12 years ago. But unlike Mandy, Lisa has chosen not to be tested, the Daily Star reports. As she helps raise awareness of the BRCA 1 and 2 genes on Emmerdale, Lisa stands by her choice.
She told the Mirror: “It's my life and I don't want to have that test done.” She added: “We’ve had years of conversation about it at Emmerdale, long before this storyline, and people have said to me: ‘But Lisa, with your history and your gene pool, why would you not do it?’ “I reply: ‘Because I don’t need to do it.’ I just want to be me and live my life from day to day. I could get run over by a truck tomorrow.” Lisa's mum tragically passed away after being diagnosed with the disease, two of her great grandmothers had breast cancer. She also lost three grandparents to other cancers in the past.
