Katie Price, once celebrated for her extensive foray into cosmetic procedures including breast implants, facelifts, liposuction, and buttock fat injections, is now advocating against plastic surgery, labeling it as ‘damaging,’ in a surprising turn of events.
The 45-year-old former glamour model is urging young women to avoid such procedures, expressing her dismay particularly towards those in their 20s opting for fillers. Price, speaking on the How To Fail With Elizabeth Day podcast, emphasized her stance, asserting she refrained from facial alterations until her 40s, hence rejecting any hypocrisy accusations.
Acknowledging her own history with cosmetic enhancements, Price disclosed her initial experimentation with lip injections resulted in a less-than-desirable outcome, likening her appearance to that of a duck.
Despite her personal journey with plastic surgery, which reportedly includes over 17 breast augmentations, Price lamented the pervasive trend among young women to homogenize their appearances through excessive use of fillers, expressing concern about the long-term consequences.
As a mother to Harvey, Junior, and Princess, Price revealed her children’s aversion to undergoing similar procedures, attributing it to their exposure to her own experiences.
Beyond her personal narrative, Price aims to shed light on the realities of plastic surgery, advocating for greater awareness of the pain, recovery process, and potential risks associated with such procedures.
Price, who has endured financial challenges and bankruptcy, attributes some of her struggles to her relationships with men, reflecting on her marriages to Peter Andre, Alex Reid, and Kieran Hayler, describing the latter two as ‘just rebounds.’
In her current relationship with reality star JJ Slater, who is notably younger, Price finds solace but acknowledges the ongoing impact of past experiences, prompting her to seek therapy.
Price’s journey from glamour icon to vocal critic of plastic surgery underscores a broader conversation about body image, self-acceptance, and the societal pressures influencing women’s choices.
