Dolce & Gabbana muse – and star of its Light Blue campaign – Bianca Balti has revealed she has had a preventative mastectomy after discovering she is a carrier for the BRCA 1 gene.
“It’s a strange situation,” model Bianca Balti tells me over Zoom. A series of chance encounters in late 2022 led her to get her genes evaluated – one of those simple spit-in-a-tube tests – and she discovered she was a carrier for the BRCA1 gene. The results gave her a crystal ball into the future. Balti now knew she had a 50 percent chance of getting breast cancer and a 30 percent chance of developing ovarian cancer in her lifetime.
“The hardest part of this entire process has been the fear,” she says. “Of finding out the diagnosis, the unknown, of taking time off work, of not knowing how my body will look.” The latter was, understandably, a particular focus for the model, who professionally is one half of the iconic couple in the Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue campaign. “Obviously, how we look should be the last of our concerns. Life should be our concern, but many women do care.
