Chloe Ferry, the 29-year-old star of Geordie Shore, has bravely opened up about the mental health struggles she faced after undergoing numerous cosmetic surgeries, revealing that she once considered taking her own life after hitting “rock bottom.”
Ferry, who rose to fame at the age of 19 when she joined the hit MTV show, has been candid about her physical transformations over the years. Throughout her time in the spotlight, the reality star faced harsh online criticism, prompting her to undergo over £50,000 worth of cosmetic procedures. Initially, she believed that altering her appearance would solve her insecurities and boost her confidence. However, she now admits the surgeries left her feeling worse and has decided to take steps to correct her previous choices.
In a heartfelt interview on Paul Brunson’s We Need To Talk podcast, Chloe revealed how her mental health deteriorated after undergoing surgery. With tears in her eyes, she shared that she had felt so low at one point that she didn’t want to be alive. “I’ve been rock bottom where I’ve felt I didn’t want to be here,” she confessed. “It was dark. I can’t go back to feeling like that.”
Ferry, who has been seeing a therapist to help manage her struggles, spoke openly about the toll the surgeries had taken on her mental wellbeing. “I always doubt myself and look in the mirror and say I don’t look nice today,” she admitted. “I’m very mean to myself and I need to give myself a break.”
Reflecting on her experiences, she explained that the pressure of public scrutiny, especially at such a young age, led to her decision to pursue cosmetic surgery. “Being put in the public eye at 19 years old was very daunting, I was naive and vulnerable,” she shared. “I was ridiculed for my looks and my weight, and it massively affected my mental health and confidence.”
Chloe continued, revealing that she had hoped the surgeries would fix her insecurities and restore her sense of self-love, but instead, they triggered further anxiety and depression. “With this attention came offers of cosmetic surgery which I thought would solve all my problems,” she said. “This wasn’t the case. I suffered more depression, anxiety, as well as physical discomfort.”
Now, after years of personal growth, Chloe is committed to helping others avoid the same mistakes. She recently shared her plans to “correct” her past surgeries with her followers, aiming to educate others on the reality of cosmetic procedures and their potential consequences. “I want young women and men to learn from my mistakes and have a better understanding of cosmetic surgery,” she said. “I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for being very supportive. It really means the world to me.”
Chloe’s openness about her struggles highlights the importance of self-acceptance and the dangers of seeking external validation. Through her journey of healing, she hopes to empower others to make informed decisions and embrace their true selves.
