and fallopian tubes to avoid getting cancer. Her operation now puts her

The 39 years old star, says that her mother Marcheline Bertrand died
when she was 49 from the same ailment and wanted to take the action now
so as to avoid dying too.
Mum-of-six Angelina says that she had been planning the preventative

got the diagnosis, she underwent the procedure, a laparoscopic bilateral
salpingo-oophorectomy
