Olivia Munn didn't realise she was focusing on ‘things that didn't matter' until cancer fight
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Olivia Munn didn't realise she was focusing on 'things that didn't matter' until she was diagnosed with cancer. The actress, 44, was told she had bilateral breast cancer in April 2023 and since then has undergone five surgeries including a double mastectomy, a hysterectomy and lymph node dissection. Opening up about the new outlook on life the gruelling health fight has given her, she told a FYC event in Los Angeles while proming her new Apple TV+ series 'Your Friends and Neighbors': 'I don't think I realised how much I was focusing on things that didn't matter until I had a crashing moment in my life, which was being diagnosed with breast cancer.' She continued: 'It's unfortunate, I think, when something that big has to kind of turn your head around to look back at how you've been living and realising like, 'Oh, wait, these things don't matter.' 'But, at the same time, that's, I guess, the blessing in those moments.' Olivia revealed the details of her diagnosis and treatment earlier this year and has since spoken openly about how the ordeal has shifted her priorities. The 'X-Men: Apocalypse' star said she now appreciates her time with loved ones more than ever, especially with her partner, 41-year-old comedian John Mulaney, and their two children – three-year-old son Malcolm and seven-month-old daughter Méi. She said: 'So when I have energy to get up in the morning and I have energy to be with my family and my friends, and I get to work with amazing people, it's truly, as saccharine as it might sound, when I get up and I'm here and I get to see the sky and I see my children playing and I get to talk to my friends – I just need that.
