Evert was first diagnosed with stage 1 ovarian cancer in 2021, PEOPLE shared. That came just a year after her sister died of the disease. After discovering that she carried the BRCA gene, she then underwent a preventive double mastectomy the following year in 2022.
“While this is a diagnosis I never wanted to hear, I once again feel fortunate that it was caught early,” Evert shared in 2023. “I encourage everyone to know your family history and advocate for yourself. Early detection saves lives. Be thankful for your health this holiday season.”
