Maria Menounos recovering from brain tumor surgery

The annoucement came the same day Menounos revealed in a People magazine cover story that she recently underwent surgery for a golf ball-size meningioma brain tumor.

Menounos' surgeon was able to remove almost 100% of the tumor, which was benign, during a complicated seven-hour surgery, she told the publication.

"He said there's a six to seven percent chance that we'll see it come back," said Menounos, who is recovering at home. "But I'll take those odds any day."
