Skye Wheatley has revealed the shocking total figure she has spent undergoing cosmetic surgeries in her life.
The I'm a Celebrity! winner, 31, spilled the personal detail to her co-host Callum Hole, 27, on the second episode of their new Nova podcast Skye & Callum.
Skye estimates the total cost of her cosmetic enhancements is close to half a million dollars.
'Honestly, I would say all up maybe $200,000,' Skye said at first.
However, after factoring in 'heaps of' cosmetic procedures such as laser skin treatments, Botox which she says costs $300 to $400 per session, and fillers such as Profhilo which can cost $500 per session, she admitted the total would be more than double: 'But if we're going off my life, I'm going to say $500,000.'

Skye is a vocal advocate for transparency about her 'entirely unnatural' appearance in the social media space.
The Australian influencer has courted controversy for admitting to having liposuction, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty (where they cut the saggy eye lid skin and sew it together), multiple boob jobs, as well as her headline grabbing fox eye lift in Turkey last September.
Some of these procedures, she has previously admitted, were undertaken against the advice of her plastic surgeon.
'The latest surgery that I've had done is the temporal lift - so the fox eye - and I went to Turkey to have that done which is pretty traumatic if I'm being completely honest,' she told Callum.
'Overall, I'm stoked [with the result].'
However, when she first woke up, Skye was 'blind for three days' and couldn't walk because she was catheterised and 'dosed up on morphine'.
'Couldn't walk. Couldn't move. I needed to vomit,' and what's more she couldn't speak to the nurses because 'no one spoke English'.
'I was screaming help. I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't gone with a friend,' she said.
The fox eye lift surgery, designed to mimic the red carpet look of the same name, has pulled back the outer corner of her eyes to have the almond shape usually achieved with dramatic eye make-up.
Skye's longtime partner Lachlan Waugh told her she looked 'f**king horrific' post op and her kids said she looked 'so scary.'
'That's horror movie spec,' Callum agreed.
Skye was forced to address accusations of a plastic surgery addiction shortly after she announced she was travelling to Turkey last year.
'Really not being a hater - but YOU'RE the exact reason girls have self esteem issues,' one follower wrote on her Instagram.
'I want to be completely open and honest about everything that I'm having done because I don't want young girls to look at me and think I'm natural because I'm not,' Skye said.
'I don't want young girls to look at me and think they have to do that in order to feel beautiful. I wasn't born like this and I'm not going to get online and fake it. I'm honest about having body dysmorphia.'
Body dysmoprhia, or body dysmorphic disorder, is a mental illness where sufferers obsessively focus on a perceived flaw in appearance.
The flaw may be minor or imagined, but a person with BDD may spend hours a day trying to fix it.
According to the American Psychiatric Association, people with BDD 'often seek unnecessary surgical interventions'.
'I've always been like this,' Skye admitted, saying her obsession with 'tweaking' her body began in primary school.
Callum, who rose to fame on Love Island in 2022, joked that if Skye had a book of all her surgeries, 'it would be like a Bible,' and because of her propensity for surgeries 'Lachy's got a new girlfriend every couple of months.'
After Skye entered the public eye on Big Brother in 2014, the first surgery she had done was a breast augmentation in Thailand that almost resulted in 'three boobs.'
'It was through some CosMedi tour. You know, the Australian companies that fly you over to Thailand because it's cheaper and it was a massive disaster,' she recalled.
She then had her nose reconstructed before having her two sons, Forest, six, and Bear, three, before 'getting my boobs done again.'
'When I woke up, I felt like a truck had been dropped on my chest both times,' Skye said.
Skye went back under the needle, less than six months after getting the 'fox eye lift' and several other beauty enhancement procedures in Turkey last year.
The influencer starred in a promotional video for Gold Coast cosmetic injectables clinic, sharing the results of her new side profile to Instagram on after getting 'chin filler.'
Chin fillers involve injecting temporary dermal fillers, which are gel-like substances, into the soft tissues of the jaw to create a stronger jawline.
In addition to her fox eye lift, which she said made her look like an 'angry bird', Skye also had liposuction on her arms and inner thighs, a temporal lift and a blepharoplasty.
A temporal lift is a fat transfer into the face to prevent the need for injectable dermal fillers and a blepharoplasty is an eyelid surgery.
In Australia, the cosmetic surgery industry brought in a number of rigorous reforms backed by practitioners in July 2023 and further reforms will be introduced in September 2025 to restrict the number of under 18s undergoing procedures.
