The Duchess of York has shared some tragic news concerning getting diagnosed with cancer for the second time within a year. Just hours ago, Sarah Ferguson took to her Instagram to post a picture of herself with a caption detailing her ailment.

She revealed that she is now dealing with a form of skin cancer called malignant melanoma. The recent diagnosis comes after Sarah underwent a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery to combat her breast cancer, diagnosed last summer.

Sarah explained that her vigilant dermatologist was the one to detect her melanoma. Although the doting mom faces a challenging time, she remains steadfast and brave in her fight. A part of her message stated: "Naturally another cancer diagnosis has been a shock but I'm in good spirits and grateful for the many messages of love and support."

Concerning her skin cancer, a rep for Sarah disclosed to a news source that she is currently in the midst of further investigating whether her condition has been caught in the early stages. The Duchess of York has been able to stay as resilient as she has partly due to the robust support and love she receives from her and Prince Andrew's daughters.

Last year, Sarah shared how Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice rallied around her when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Concerning their support, Sarah divulged: "My two wonderful daughters are my wholehearted cheerleaders, my devoted champions and my soulmates, and they have been as supportive as can be, as they always are."
