As they celebrated Mother's Day, Victoria Ekanoye and her mother Candy have been through more than most together. In November former Corrie actress Victoria revealed that she was battling breast cancer.
The star was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ - when cancer cells have developed within the milk ducts in the breast - just months after giving birth to her first child Theo with her partner Jonny Lomas.
Ahead of her double mastectomy and reconstruction surgery she was the belle of the ball at a 'Bye Bye Boobies' party at BLVD in Spinningfields to raise funds for Prevent Breast Cancer and Sickle Cell Care Manchester.
