TELLY'S Jennifer Saunders has won a secret battle with breast cancer, The Sun can reveal.
The Absolutely Fabulous star, 52, was diagnosed last October after she found a lump.
Last night, pals revealed that she has remained strong and determined throughout her eight-month breast cancer battle - and is now back on form after doctors gave her the all-clear.
After finding the lump, mum-of-three Jennifer immediately sought advice from her GP and was diagnosed with cancer in days.
She began punishing courses of both chemotherapy and radiotherapy but kept her ordeal a closely-guarded secret. She ended up losing her hair.
But in the last month she has been told she has beaten the disease. She was pictured at Wimbledon a week ago wearing a wig and bandana but smiling and happy with her eldest daughter Ella, 24.
The star is married to former Young Ones actor Adrian Edmondson, 53.
They have two other daughters - Beatrice, 23, and Freya, 19.

She was the voice of Fairy Godmother in Shrek II. I wish her well.
you watched this too, didn’t you?
Wish her well. She’s very funny.
How wonderful.
God bless her. One of the funniest women alive. Notice how quickly and efficiently she received first class care. She did not go through the National Health Service, she was treated at a private, non-profit clinic. Lucky her.
“daaarling, don’t be that way. mummy loves you sweetie, even if you are ugly. but i meant that in a good way darling.”
i loved that show. watching her interaction with her daughter made my son look at me one day and say “you are a great mom. thank God you are nothing like that woman.” “Edina” makes every mom look like a saint by comparison.
I love it too! A true classic!
I’m such a HUGE fan of Saunders (and Dawn French!). Congratulations and never stop writing! We need you.
Her and Patsy showing up drunk at her father’s funeral and falling in the open grave and not able to get out was sick, but hysterical.
I loved how much she changed when she found out that Saffy was pregnant by a black man. “Black babies are just such a fashion statement.”
I did! Best wishes to her....wow, so glad she was able to keep her privacy for so long since that was obviously her wish!
JUST what I was thinking!!!
YOU nailed it....
I always thought she was a hoot, though.
He is wonderful, but I don’t really think “The Young Ones” holds up too well. Its a little too over the top, but the old “French & Saunders” shows are still hilarious. I wish they’d produce some new ones.
“I’ve made a potion that turns you into an axe-wielding homicidal maniac. It’s a cure, really. For not being an axe-wielding homicidal maniac.”
Where´ve you been sweetie-darling?
Lacroix, sweetie!
