She's hoping others will check themselves now too.
Faye Winter has opened up about her experience of finding a lump in her breast.
She had gone away on holidays a few weeks ago and while applying sun cream, she felt the lump.

Opening up about it on her Instastories, she explained that she had been posting less online since finding it.
"I know that a lot of you have noticed that I have been quite quiet on here, especially since my girls holiday when you guys were like 'where's all [my] content?'
"I didn't want to let anyone in too soon and I didn't feel like there was a right time to speak to you guys but I feel like today is probably the day for it.
"I was putting my sun cream and I went ''oops, what is she, she is new to my body.'' And I found a little lump.
"So I went to my doctors and two weeks ago and they referred me and I'm going to have a mammogram and an ultrasound and make sure everything's OK and make sure it's nothing sinister."

Faye attended a breast care unit yesterday (6 June) and will be back again on Thursday.
"I'm sure it's nothing and it's just a cyst or something but it has played on my mind and I haven't really been able to get it out of my mind which is fine.
"If one person has a check today then I will be so happy."
