Applegate, 36, publicly revealed her diagnosis for breast cancer in August and had a double-mastectomy performed.
The actress told chat show host Ellen DeGeneres that she went back to work on her sitcom "Samantha Who?" for about five weeks right after her surgery, but mostly kept her diagnosis a secret.

Is she married; is her significant other a tit man; could she have hidden her surgery; what would I do in her shoes.....
