The 53-year-old Roberts has been very public about her battle with breast cancer, the death of her mother and the bone marrow donation she received from her sister. However, she kept her personal life very private, until now.
This past Sunday, Roberts posted the following message on her Facebook page:
“At this moment I am at peace and filled with joy and gratitude. I am grateful to God, my doctors and nurses for my restored good health. I am grateful for my sister, Sally-Ann, for being my donor and giving me the gift of life. I am grateful for my entire family, my long time girlfriend, Amber, and friends as we prepare to celebrate a glorious new year together. I am grateful for the many prayers and well wishes for my recovery. I return every one of them to you 100 fold. On this last Sunday of 2013 I encourage you to reflect on what you are grateful for too.”
