Sharon Stone Says Husband Left Over Planned Double Mastectomy for 2 Breast Tumors

Summary
Stone said on a June 1 podcast that her husband was “furious” when doctors urged a bilateral mastectomy after finding two breast tumors in the early 2000s, and that the confrontation effectively ended the marriage.
One tumor was larger than her entire left breast, she said, and doctors warned the growths were likely cancerous; Stone decided to proceed because she was “not fucking around.”
Stone said her husband objected specifically to removing her breasts, prompting her doctor to defend the decision and Stone to tell him, “I make the decisions, not you.”
She ultimately did not undergo the double mastectomy because the tumors proved benign, but she described the episode as the point when the relationship was over.
