“She’s doing well, which is great,” began Roberts, who has fought her own battles with breast cancer.
“I went through it twice, barely shed a tear,” she said. “I’m a puddle every time I think about what Amber is going through. She is being so courageous and is handling it extremely well.”
The couple have been together for 17 years.
