Katie Price has documented the full healing process of her facelift after going under the knife once more.
The 46-year-old reality star splashed out £10,000 earlier this year when she jetted off to Turkey for another cosmetic procedure.
It was Katie’s sixth facelift, adding to the long list of surgeries and treatments she’s had, including breast enhancements, rhinoplasty, and various forms of facial filler.
Following her latest facelift, the former glamour model was all bandaged up, with fellow residents at her hotel in Istanbul complaining that her wounds were an eyesore as they visibly wept when she got into the pool.
Having made it through the initial recovery process, however, Katie has now shared the importance of ‘trusting the process’.
Taking to Instagram tonight, the mum-of-five shared a video compilation of photos taken after the operation.
Photo by photo, her face began to change, having started off seriously swollen as her eyes were barely able to open.
One selfie was even taken on the day Katie attended court to face the music after being arrested upon landing at London’s Heathrow Airport.
The I’m A Celebrity icon was detained after missing a series of court dates to discuss her second bankruptcy and repayment plans, as she owes over £750,000 in tax.
In the end, though, once the majority of her bandages had been removed, Katie displayed a new look in the clip with just a few stitches by her temples remaining.
Taking to the comments of her post, not everyone was so enthusiastic about Katie’s transformation.
User yvettef_k commented: ‘Its truly sad that we live in a world where people feel they have to do this.😢’
Another, missmilzrod, said she ‘worries for young girls’, while plaincrisps84 penned: ‘Honestly you have to stop, you’re ruining yourself. So pretty around the jungle sort of time’.
It wasn’t all negative, though, as there were plenty of comments describing Katie as ‘beautiful’ and praising her ‘amazing’ results.
User keep_going_for_grace commented on the timelapse: ‘Why are people so bothered about Katie fixing her face. It’s her choice 🤦🏼♀️’
‘You look so good 😊’, wrote jay_e_davies7.
‘This is what I love about you you’re so truthful real and honest never change girrrrrllll xxxxx’, commented georgiag_newcastle_.
Despite frequently dividing opinion with her appearance, Katie has always been honest about what she’s had done.
Most recently, she discussed her fears surrounding surgery after receiving a rather eerie warning from a clairvoyant.
Speaking to Greatest Hits Radio, Katie began: ‘I know this is really weird, but I was having a conversation with my sister on our podcast the other day.
‘And I remember when I was in America and I went and saw a lady with a crystal ball, you know, like a medium or clairvoyant or whatever they’re called.
‘And I said to her, “How do you think I’m going to die?” I know not many people would ask that, but I did.
‘She said, “Oh, you’re going to die in your sleep peacefully.” And then my sister said, “And you’re going for surgery, you’ll probably die in your sleep”.’
OnlyFans model Katie added: ‘That sort of triggered something in my head. And I was like, “Do you know what? Imagine if that is,” because the amount of times I’ve been put to sleep and that’s stuck in my mind.
‘If I have surgery again, what if I do go in my sleep? because you are asleep. And I think that’s connected to something in my brain.’
Katie has also spoken previously about her body dysmorphia – also known as body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) – which is a mental health condition where a person spends a lot of time worrying about their appearance.
She previously told the Go Love Yourself! podcast: ‘I’ve never thought I’m good-looking, and I still don’t. Maybe I’ve got body dysmorphia, and [maybe] I have to admit I’ve got body dysmorphia because I’m always changing stuff. And I know sometimes when I’ve gone too far.’
Despite admitting to a surgery ‘addiction’ herself, Katie doesn’t advocate for other women going abroad for cheaper procedures.
She’s also aware that her daughter, Princess, has been ‘put off surgery’ forever thanks to her famous mum.
‘Princess knows she’s beautiful,’ Katie told the Daily Mail about her 17-year-old, whom she shares with ex-husband Peter Andre.
‘She doesn’t need anything doing and I think I’ve put her off surgery for life, which is a good thing! When you have surgery, people see the before and after pictures and they don’t get to see what happens in between, but Princess has seen.’
As well as Princess, Katie is a mum to Jett, 10, and Bunny, nine, with ex-husband Kieran Hayler, and she has Junior, 19, with Pete.
Katie – who is currently dating Married At First Sight star JJ Slater, 31 – also has Harvey, 22, whose dad is ex-footballer Dwight Yorke, and has made no secret of wanting to have more kids.
