The 22-year-old broke down in tears talking about it.
She said, "I went to get my results today for my lump."
"And they think it could be cancerous so I have to have it operated on and removed in the next couple of weeks."

She continued, "Nothing is for certain but I'm really worried. I'm sure it'll be fine."
"It's a shock because you don't think, I was sat there in this waiting room and it was full of old people and I was the only young one there."
"I thought I'm so young for God's sake."

"I'll be ok..."
Demi continued, "I know loads of women go through this, I'll be fine."
"It might not even be cancer but they've got to cut it out to find out. I'm shocked at the moment."
"I'll be ok, when I get it removed it'll be fine."

Demi followed her story up with a post urging her followers to get their lumps checked if they're concerned.
'Please don't put off getting lumps checked, if appointments keep getting cancelled then you need to chase it up.'
'I was supposed to have this appointment six months ago,' she revealed.

'Always push!'
'At my scan they said, 'everything looks fine,' and went to send me on my way.'
'I challenged it and asked if they could do more, in which they said 'oh well we can test the fluid if you want us to?''
'Thank god I asked as it was the fluid that can be potentially cancerous. Always push!'
