‘People were asking me if I was pregnant – I was so insecure'

In 2017, Yazmin Oukhellou was thrust into the spotlight as TOWIE ’s latest brunette bombshell. But despite being famed for her enviable looks, Yaz has been open about having surgery in order to enhance her already stunning appearance.

And now, the 26-year-old is speaking exclusively to new about jetting to Turkey to have high-definition liposuction, and what’s widely considered one of the most dangerous procedures ever – a Brazilian bum lift.

When we give Yaz a call, she’s in Dubai and recovering from her £3,000 surgery with co-star boyfriend, James Lock.

“I’ll be honest, it was traumatic – I’m still sore to touch,” explains Yaz. “I hadn’t really seen how dangerous the [bum lift] procedure was until after I had it done.”

In 2019, Yaz was left heartbroken as rumours spread that James, 34, had cheated on her during their two-year relationship. However, since rekindling their romance last year, the loved-up star says that James has been her rock.

“At first, James thought I was losing the plot,” Yaz reveals. “But I had him with me every step of the way.”

Here, the reality favourite shows off the results of her surgery and opens up about how trolls led to her going under the knife for the third time, the realities of the gruelling procedures and her dreams of starting a family…

Hi Yaz! Can you talk us through the procedures you’ve had done?

I had laser liposuction and BBL [Brazilian bum lift]. They took out the fat from my tummy and put it onto my hips to give it that “hip dip” shape.

Brazilian bum lifts killed one in 3,000 people who underwent them in 2018. Did you know about the risks?
