Reality television star Kelly Hyland from Lifetime’s “Dance Moms” has been diagnosed with breast cancer, she shared on Instagram Wednesday.
Hyland first confirmed the diagnosis to E! News, adding that she knew something was wrong when she kept getting compliments on her weight loss. She hadn’t changed anything in her regimen, she said.
"I booked myself a mammogram," the 53-year-old told E! News. "I had just had one done eight months prior and the results came back clean. However, this new mammogram and sonogram did not, it came back showing a mass."
The outlet added that doctors diagnosed her with invasive carcinoma stage 1, grade 3, and that her breast cancer was “very fast-moving."
The mother of three shared the news with her children, Brooke, Paige and Josh, during a four-way call, E! reported.

Her daughter Paige told E! News that hearing her mother’s diagnosis took her back to her grandmother’s battle with cancer. Kelly’s mother passed in 2019, Paige shared.
"So I understood the long road we had ahead of us and it pained me to imagine my mother having to endure that same feeling,” Paige said.
Hyland’s son, Josh, said he was "speechless and scared" when his mom told him about the diagnosis but he’s hopeful she’ll be OK.
“I feel like she caught it quickly," Josh told E! News. "I know my mom is strong enough to get through this."
Known for her appearance on reality TV show "Dance Moms," Hyland recently took part in the franchise's latest installment, "Dance Moms: The Reunion." Hyland and her fellow castmates also talked about what life has been like since the show first aired. The show premiered on May 1 on the Lifetime channel.

Amid Hyland's recent diagnosis and Instagram post, castmates and family members took to the comments to support her. Christi Lukasiak, also from “Dance Moms,” was among Hyland's supporters.
“I love you and the kids,” Lukasiak wrote. “Forever have your back.”
Brooke, Hyland’s daughter, also commented.
“My strong mama,” she posted with a heart emoji.
