Olivia Attwood gasps in shock as woman who spent £250k on plastic surgery reveals what she looked like BEFORE extreme human Barbie transformation

Daily Mail​17-07-2025
Olivia Attwood gasped in shock as a woman who spent £250,000 on plastic surgery revealed what she looked like before her extreme human Barbie transformation.
The TV personality and former Love Island contestant, 34, returned last month to host the second series of her ITV documentary Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection.
Over the six episodes, the Loose Women panellist meets with patients and doctors to investigate the changing world of science, social media and cosmetic surgery.
In each 45-minute episode, she explores a different theme: weight loss, smiles, skin, mummy makeovers, men and people with more than £100,000 total spends.
Olivia joins women before, after and during their procedures - and even goes under the knife herself to try out some of the wackiest treatments.
One particularly shocking moment sees her meet with a woman named Alicia, who has spent an eye-watering more than £250,000 on cosmetic surgery.

It has left her with large lips and breasts, a striking look alongside her incredibly long platinum blonde hair and Barbie pink outfit with long nails and large hoop earrings.
Olivia looks through a scrapbook of old photos of Alicia, who points out some snaps of her taken when she was around 18 years old, in 2016.
Her look nearly ten years ago, before all the procedures, is completely unrecognisable compared to how she looks now.
Though her hair was still the same bright blonde shade, she was seen in the pictures wearing much more lowkey clothes than her habitual all-pink look now.
Alicia laughs nervously as Olivia gasps, 'Oh. My. God.'
The host asks: 'Do you think this girl had any idea how your life would be and how you'd look?'
Alicia replies: 'No! To people who really knew me back then, knew what I was like, it wouldn't be a big shock because I've always sort of been quite outgoing and confident and sexual and stuff like that.
'I just needed to find my niche, you know?'
As Olivia flips through more pages of the scrapbook, Alicia points out more images at various stages of her transformation.
The procedures she has had include breast implants, lip filler and a rhinoplasty.
Olivia asks if Alicia has ever gone without other things in her life, so as to be able to spend more money on surgery.
'There's never been anything I didn't do just because I had my plastic surgery', she replies.
'I choose my health and my looks over everything so I spend a lot of money on the stuff I put into my body such as food and that kind of thing.
'And I spend a lot of money on getting the right kind of filler, the best products.'
The presenter asks if she thinks she will ever wake up, wanting to look how she used to look - and Alicia is sure about her answer: 'No, this is so much fun!
'I just have such a fun life and I would never want it to change.'
The former TOWIE star has previously warned of a 'national issue' when it comes to injectable cosmetic procedures - and the 'dystopian' future of anti-ageing.
In an interview with MailOnline last month, Olivia said: 'There are a lot of people injecting a lot of stuff into themselves and when you actually ask the questions about what's in them, they don't have the answer.
'That highlights a national issue which is really important we put a light on.
'At worst, these things are dangerous and at best, it's salt and water that you're injecting and you're basically just washing your money down the drain.
'Either way, people need to be informed about what they are putting in their bodies.'
She was speaking in reference to Lemon Bottle Fat Dissolving - an injectable cosmetic treatment which allegedly combines Vitamin B2 and other natural ingredients to accelerate the metabolism of fat cells.
The process promises 'minimal swelling and minimal pain' and can cost up to £250 at a clinic.
But when asked by Olivia in her ITV documentary, several professionals did not truly know what was in bottles.
She said: 'It was a double-edged sword because I hated the fact [the clinician] couldn't answer the questions because I'm like, "We have to tell this story now", but obviously, it didn't look great.'
When asked about Kris Jenner's alleged facelift, which has left fans reeling at her new look, Olivia said: 'I mean, she looks fantastic, it's unbelievable.
'Work is becoming so sophisticated now, so undetectable.
'There are so many things that are happening on the surgery table like facelifts, fat grafting, and stem cells that are literally turning back the clock.
'It's dystopian, it's very exciting to watch the industry develop at such a fast rate and there's no limits to what we'll see in the next ten years in terms of scientific development of anti-ageing procedures.'
Olivia is open about her personal cosmetic surgeries, which include veneers, lip filler and Botox.
She revealed she does not regret any apart from her first boob job, admitting: 'Went too far, I went too big, also with my lips.'
The TV personality has also previously claimed her husband Bradley Dack, 30, would never have dated her before she had a boob job and lip filler.
When Olivia (pictured on Loose Women earlier this month) asked Bradley if he would have been keen to date her before her boob job, he replied, 'No', before she pushed him further and he confirmed, 'No'
When Olivia asked Bradley if he would have been keen to date her before her boob job, he replied, 'No', before she pushed him further and he confirmed, 'No'.
Rather than having an argument over Bradley's confession, Olivia insists that she got a 'big kick' out of him being that upfront because she believes most men are initially drawn to looks over personality.
She said: 'I got a big kick out of him being that honest...
'Even though Brad has been a footballer for many years, and he's done my show, he's not PR trained so he is quite off the cuff sometimes... I thought it was cool.
'He's not saying that he would never have loved me but what turned his head the first night we met was the way I looked, some of that is what I was born with and some of it, the blonde hair and my lips, is stuff I wasn't born with.
'As we know, typically, stereotyping here, men are image-based and are drawn to looks, more so than women...
'If I see a really handsome man, I think, "Would he be boring?", but men are turned on by that instant look, it's interesting that Brad was truthful about that.
'We are very secure, he knows me, I am very secure in our relationship. We talk honestly.'

Actress Monica Dolan ‘immensely proud' of Post Office campaigners

Bafta award-winning actress Monica Dolan has said she fell in love with acting as she 'just got a feeling from it that I didn't get from anywhere else'. Speaking as she appeared as the guest on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, the Mr Bates Vs the Post Office star said she first got the bug for acting at school. 'I just got a feeling from it that I didn't get from anywhere else,' she told presenter Lauren Laverne. 'I think it was basically a feeling of being noticed, or being seen as people now say. I thought, 'I want more of this'.' Dolan, who won an Olivier award for her role in All About Eve along with a Bafta for Appropriate Adult, received several award nominations for Mr Bates Vs the Post Office. She told Laverne how she prepared to play the real-life character of subpostmistress Jo Hamilton in the acclaimed ITV drama series based on the true story of Horizon IT scandal. 'I think you have to slightly put yourself in there,' Dolan said. 'You have to think, well if I was this person, how would I behave? I was very lucky with Jo because she was definitely more approachable than most people that I've played. 'One of the things I did very early on actually which was really helpful, which I'd definitely do again, was to ask her – if it wasn't too intrusive, and I felt with her that I could – to ask her to record her life story. Just a little version – like a 15 minute version – up to the point where the script begins – where it all starts. 'That was really useful, waiting for filming – I could listen to her voice, and I'd have her voice in my head, and also I'd have her background in my head. 'That was very useful indeed because you're kind of absorbing that person.' Dolan also said of those who campaigned for justice following the Post Office scandal: 'I was immensely proud of people, for being that collectively angry.' The actress, who said her luxury item would be a walk-in wardrobe with a cold glass of champagne and a new outfit for every day inside, said she would also like to take a book on flora and fauna on the island so she could identify what she saw. Among her desert island disc choices were her childhood favourite The Tra La La Song (One Banana, Two Banana) from the TV show The Banana Splits, MacArthur Park by Richard Harris, and Us Amazonians by the 'tremendous' Kirsty MacColl.

The stars of the much-loved Wittering Whitehalls podcast on how a hearing check has changed their relationship

Michael and Hilary Whitehall have been married for 39 years and – as anyone who has listened to their podcast, The Wittering Whitehalls, knows – they love to disagree. As the parents of stand-up comedian Jack Whitehall, the former talent agent (Michael) and actor (Hilary) have found new later-in-life careers as podcasters, loved both for their amusing insights and for their gentle bickering. Which is probably why they didn't notice at first that Michael's hearing was causing some frustrations. 'I genuinely do think that our arguing has got worse in recent years,' admits Hilary. 'And yes, I would argue that some of it is perhaps to do with hearing loss, because it's quite a tricky subject to navigate.' Mishaps and misunderstandings It wasn't until Michael, 85, went to Specsavers for a hearing check that he was told that he had good hearing for his age but was struggling with consonant sounds. 'We have misunderstandings on an hourly basis,' laughs Hilary. 'Just now I said: 'I'm going to brush my hair' and Michael said: 'Do you have time to wash your hair?'. 'We live in a house which has got six flights of stairs, so there is a lot of shouting up and down the stairs. 'And then there's lots of me losing my temper and stomping up the stairs... because he hasn't caught what I said!' Michael complained actors were mumbling through every film... then he realised maybe it wasn't the standard of modern acting that was the problem. It was the same at the theatre. 'I'd say: 'The trouble with that actor is they don't train them any more, he just mumbles and mumbles'. 'But I'm not going to say that any more of course!' Finding what's needed Those small issues with hearing caused their fair share of amusing anecdotes, as well as a few everyday irritations. 'What really annoys Michael about me is that I come into a room and immediately turn the sound on the television down,' says Hilary. 'And then he comes in and immediately turns it up, so we're constantly battling with each other over the remote control. 'And of course there is an element (we've been married almost 40 years) of 'Is it selective hearing?',' laughs Hilary. 'Is my voice just a noise or is he actually not hearing me?' How a hearing check helped Neither could believe how easy the hearing check was, and they were immediately put at ease by the hearing expert. 'She was so reassuring, the whole thing was painless,' says Hilary. 'The hearing expert at Specsavers said, actually your [Michael's] hearing is pretty good for your age, a little bit of upper range hearing loss, but what you're missing is the consonants. 'You're hearing an approximation of what is being said and it's very interesting to have that pointed out to you by an expert, because that made me more understanding.' For Michael, the solution was as straightforward as the hearing check. He got two hearing devices, one for each ear. They were small and discreet and even matched to his hair colour. Now, Michael can simply pop them in and use them when he feels the need. 'The last time I saw what was then known as a hearing aid was with my grandfather. He had a whole apparatus with wires and a crackling box on the front, which he kept hitting all the time while saying, 'Michael, speak up!'. 'I imagined there had been an improvement, but hadn't realised it had improved quite to the extent it has – where you can hardly see them.' Hilary adds: 'At a wedding we went to recently nobody knew that he had them in; they are beautifully designed and very discreet.' Spreading the word The couple are now working with Specsavers to help encourage others to take action. Hilary explains: 'Michael always says that we're all happy to go and have a dental check, a sight check, but the one thing we don't do is have a hearing check, because there is a stigma about hearing loss. 'But I would say to anybody: go for a hearing check: they're very quick, very efficient and very accurate.' Couples say 'What?' more often than 'I love you' In romantic relationships, research for Specsavers found saying 'What?' is more common than 'I love you' for couples aged 55+*. Almost half (46 per cent) of Britons had bickered with a partner due to not hearing properly; 36 per cent said it happened weekly. And 15 per cent were misunderstood by their partner at least once a day. Hearing loss can impact how we experience and enjoy life, and our relationships with loved ones. It's what Michael and Hilary found, with small misunderstandings and irritations as a result of Michael's hearing loss. But Specsavers makes it easy to keep track of your hearing health, with free hearing checks in store, expert advice and a wide range of hearing devices to suit individual needs and lifestyles. How to book your check Simply book online at and choose your local store, or call them direct. Your hearing expert will ask some easy health-related questions, use a small camera to examine the health of your ear and will then play sounds at different pitches through headphones to check your hearing. Based on your results, the Specsavers hearing experts can then make recommendations and they'll help you find the best solution for you. Symptoms to look out for Changes to hearing can happen gradually, so hearing experts recommend booking a check if you're struggling to listen to conversations or the television, if speaking on the phone is difficult, or if you feel like you have to ask people to repeat conversations in groups can be challenging, and concentrating on listening can leave you feeling stressed or tired. There is no need to be embarrassed. Earlier intervention can actually mean you have a better chance of managing and improving your hearing. And with today's hearing devices connected to phones and even linked to appliances at home, they can be easier and more discreet to manage than ever before.

Ulrika Jonsson: My wrinkles shouldn't matter

Ulrika Jonsson has said her wrinkles should not matter after she was trolled for not wearing make-up. The 57-year-old hit back at 'vindictive and hurtful' online criticism of her appearance on a recent podcast and admitted that it made her feel 'awful'. The Swedish-born television personality said she was kind and intelligent and the state of her ageing skin 'should be of no consequence'. She received abuse after speaking on Matthew Spencer's Untapped podcast earlier this month, where she discussed her alcoholism and achieving more than a year of sobriety. Jonsson did not wear makeup for the interview, which was also being filmed, resulting in her social media being 'flooded with hurtful comments' about how she looked when it was released. Comments included being called a 'hag', that she had 'let herself go' or even 'gone to seed', while others told her to put make-up back on. Writing in the Sunday Times about the backlash she suffered, she said her heart 'started hurting' as a result of the 'nasty' messages she received while having such a 'vital' conversation. She wrote: 'I felt an uneasy sensation in my entire body. It made me feel awful.' Jonsson admitted that she had previously tried both Botox and filler but now she wants to 'look [her] age'. 'I've fought hard against the whole perception of women being solely about beauty and image,' she continued. 'I'm a practical woman and I come with a wealth of experience, kindness and intelligence. 'The fact that I now have wrinkles, lines and jowls should be of no consequence.' 'Getting older is a privilege' Jonsson said she suffered from eczema as a youngster, meaning the idea of wearing makeup as she got older was 'not a priority'. She credited Pamela Anderson, who is the same age as her, for being the driving force of a growing number of women who are going au naturel and leaving makeup altogether. 'I know what the alternative to ageing is and, with my newfound sobriety, serenity and inner peace, I don't want to go there right now,' Jonsson added. 'Getting older is a privilege, even though for some nasty, cruel individuals, that's conditional upon us girls keeping our make-up on and staying wrinkle-free.'
