Morgan Wade <\/strong><\/a>is “going really hard” in 2023. The 28-year-old country music star behind the “Wilder Days” hit is enjoying as much of the year as she can before undergoing a double mastectomy as a precaution against breast cancer. “I had the BRCA gene,” she told Page Six <\/em>at London’s Highways Festival on May 20. “It\u2019s a breast cancer gene, so I\u2019m having a double mastectomy in November. I\u2019m going really hard up until November, so then November and December, I have off to rest.”<\/p>\n BRCA1 and BRCA2 are genes that produce proteins that help repair damaged DNA, according to the National Cancer Institute<\/a>. However, when someone inherits a harmful variant of one of these genes, they have an increased risk of several cancers, most notably breast and ovarian cancers. Morgan is not leaving anything up to chance. “I\u2019m feeling fine. I\u2019m just pissed I won\u2019t be able to work out because I really like working out,” she told Page Six <\/em>about her upcoming operation, adding that she usually works out seven days a week. “That\u2019s my only qualm about it.”<\/p>\n More so, Morgan has become\u00a0Kyle Richards<\/strong><\/a>‘ new bestie and has taken to social media in recent months to share a plethora of photos<\/a> with the\u00a0RHOBH\u00a0<\/em><\/a>star.
