Luckily her daughter, Chloe Rose Lattanzi, 31, is also super supportive of her famous mom. “My mom is fine and the one thing she told me is to keep being creative positive and take my mind off anything negative,” she previously said on social media.
In a previous interview, Olivia revealed she doesn’t resent her past battle with cancer. “I am grateful for the experience because without it I would not have done many of the things I have done in my life. It’s taught me compassion for those going through difficult times,” she said at the time. Get well soon, Olivia!
