Caprice reveals she underwent life-saving surgery to treat a brain tumour
CAPRICE has revealed that she has undergone a life saving operation for a brain tumour the size of a thumb.
The 45-year-old model suddenly quit ski show The Jump in February and now she explains the reason was being diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Speaking to HELLO! Magazine, Caprice said: "I was diagnosed with a brain tumour. I found out while I was competing in the show and boy, was it more horrific than any of the challenges."
The mum-of-two now claims the show saved her life after she was made to see a doctor by bosses after suffering headaches and blurred vision.
"The Jump saved my life.
"I had headaches that were not going away and my vision was beginning to act up so the show’s production insisted I see their doctor."

Despite knowing she needed surgery for the terrifying news, Caprice says her only thoughts were with her three-year-old sons, Jett and Jax.
"My first thought was for my two little boys. I’m their rock and keep my family together. It was the scariest moment I’d ever experienced."
