Cancer survivor Christina Applegate spotted with a cigarette

Hollywood actress Christina Applegate, who was recently cured of breast cancer after a year-long battle, left her fans shocked when she was caught smoking.

She had quit the habit before undergoing a double mascetomy in a bid to get rid of cancer.

However, Applegate, who used to be a chain smoker, couldn’t hold herself back for long and was spotted smoking in L.A

“Christina had been a smoker for quite some time. She stopped smoking when she received her health news last year but, as everyone knows, it’’s difficult to break an addictive smoking habit,” Contactmusic quoted a source as telling during the news show The Insider.

“Considering all the stress she’’s had over the years, she had that occasional weak moment which has led to the occasional cigarette. We need to remember she’’s only human,” the source added.
