Amanda Peet will 'never forget' the moment she received her breast cancer diagnosis

Amanda Peet will "never forget" the moment she received her breast cancer diagnosis.

The 54-year-old actress was diagnosed with cancer in autumn 2025, and Amanda still has vivid memories of feeling "weird" in the months leading up to the news.

During an appearance on the Today show, Amanda shared: "I was in my closet, I was probably putting something on and I felt a weird ... It just didn’t feel like normal skin, but it wasn’t the frozen pea that everybody talks about.

"I went and I even got an MRI and then they sent me away. So I thought I had a clean bill of health, but they were actually watching it."

Amanda went for a routine test six months later, when her usually upbeat doctor "went silent" during an appointment.

The actress subsequently had a biopsy and received her cancer diagnosis.

She shared: "I’ll never forget that moment."
