Tanya Bardsley horrified as '20-year-old filler scraped out' during face lift
EXCLUSIVE: Tanya Bardsley has revealed that while under the knife for a cosmetic procedure, her surgeon dragged out two-decade-old filler from her face, leaving her with a new look Tanya Bardsley had 20 year old filler scraped out from her face during a surgical procedure. The former model and reality star has never shied away from discussing her surgical enhancements and believes people in the public eye should be more open about work they've had done. Last year, Tanya had a mid-face lift after noticing her "jowls just dropped" while dealing with perimenopause symptoms and had initially planned to have a full facelift. But her surgeon warned her against this and stated she only needed minor work done. In the past, Tanya, 44, has had filler injected into her face, but had no idea that it lay dormant in the areas it was injected. "I started looking like a bulldog," she said of her face before going under the knife. Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, Tanya added: "I just thought 'I'm not having this anymore, I feel terrible and I can't control it, but I can control these chops' I'd heard great things about Mr Rao – I didn't have the full face lift. "I went in saying I wanted the full and he said I needed the mid. There's only so much filler, I was starting to look a bit Hey Arnold-y, so he did the mid facelift and he just sewed muscles back to where they were, so I had actual cheekbones and not just filler ones. "He was dragging out 20-year-old filler, scraping it out which was amazing. It's just like starting again – you can't keep pumping it full of filler and Mr Rao is just amazing, he did all these pre-videos and everything. I was deciding for a good year because I'm impulsive. I have to tell myself I need to wait a year now." Mr Rao at Pall Mall Medical, where Tanya had her procedure, informed her afterwards that her two-decade-old filler was "like concrete". Speaking of her perimenopausal symptoms, Tanya explained: "The skin changes, everything drops, your soul drops, your personality drops, and the jowls drop. "I was trying to control the others with hormones and stuff, but I could control lifting the face a little bit, which did lift my spirits." The model admits she was "over the moon" with the results after the treatment from Pall Mal. "You have to have your expectations, which Pall Mall are really good at." Her daughter, Gabriella, 23, had also visited Pall Mall for a breast lift but decided against it after being told the "realistic" options for the procedure. "The surgeon talked her out of it," Tanya said, adding: "Her expectations could never be achieved without certain scars." But with the rise of more people going under the knife, Tanya said: "If I want it, I'm going to have it, and if someone doesn't want it, that's fine, it's up to them. I think women should support women. I'm always 100 per cent open about everything that I have done. I'm not a gatekeeper, and I don't want girls thinking, 'Why's her face like that and mine's not?' I want to be open – I've had it lifted and a bit chopped off." Away from surgery, despite appearing on The Real Housewives of Cheshire, Tanya and her family recently starred in their own ITV reality show, The Bardo Bunch, which has been commissioned by Hayu to be streamed across the globe. "I'm so grateful," she said of the news. She added: "I did a happy dance. It's just gone down a storm, I was panicking, I knew everyone would love my family as much as I do but I thought 'What if everyone hates it? What if everyone hates my family? What if everyone hates me?' Then I thought 'Are my kids going to hate me? Are they gonna get trolled?' but everyone loves it. "Every single comment, I've not had one bad comment. I can't even tell you what it means to me and the family." Although it's on the same platform as The Kardashians, Tanya admits her family are quite different to the Los Angeles natives. Her husband, Macclesfield FC assistant manager Phil Bardsley, would "never" film with Tanya on Housewives. "It took a long time to get him on it, and he still cringes when he watches himself. I think he's really good," she said, adding that Phil became more relaxed during filming. "I think there's plenty more for Phil to come."

Royal fans brave the rain as early birds line Pall Mall for Trooping the Colour with Princess Kate & kids to arrive
SOGGY royal fans are already lining the Pall Mall to watch this year's Trooping the Colour celebration for the King's birthday. Many braved the early morning rain to queue for a good view - bedecked in Union Jack flags and crowns. 8 8 8 8 8 Fans came prepared with umbrellas and rain coats after the Met Office issued storm warnings, as the UK is lashed by floods, thunder and lightning. There will be an incredible ceremony at the Horse Guard Parade and an airshow by the Red Arrows. King Charles and Queen Camilla will soon arrive and wave to the crowds from a carriage. Following them will be the horse-riding trio Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Prince William. Kate Middleton and the kids - Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and naughty Prince Louis, six - are yet to arrive. The Coldstream Guards are on display for the world to see, dressed in full military regalia, alongside a huge number of supporting staff. Over 1,400 officers and soldiers, 400 musicians, 200 horses and 10 bands are taking part in the Trooping the Colour event. King Charles asked royals to wear black armbands in remembrance of those killed in the Air India plane tragedy. Those wearing the bands will be the Prince of Wales, Colonel of the Welsh Guards, the Princess Royal, Colonel Blues and Royals, and the Duke of Edinburgh, Colonel Scots Guards. A spokesperson said this is "a mark of respect for the lives lost, the families in mourning and all the communities affected by this awful tragedy". There will also be a minute's silence at the event following Thursday's devastating crash which killed at least 241 people. The parade today is almost five months before King Charles' actual birthday. Charles was born on November 14, though the reigning British monarch has two birthdays. The sovereign's birthday, which is celebrated through the Trooping the Colour, usually falls in the summer months. Notably, the King's youngest son and his family are not present. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were not invited last year either. The late Queen used to invite the extended Royal Family onto the balcony, but this was later changed so that only working royals are allowed. Trooping the Colour dates back to the 17th Century, when it was first held by King Charles II. The ceremony takes its name from each regiment showing off their battle colours, which made them easier to identify when at war. Fans can either stream the event or attend live, though Central London is expected to be extremely busy. 8 8 8

Demand for oral nicotine pouches growing fast, British American Tobacco says
The Velo brand is growing the fastest within its so-called 'new category', which includes non-tobacco products like vapes, the business said. The pouches come in a variety of flavours and strengths and are designed to be placed between the gum and lip so nicotine can be absorbed through the mouth. Tadeu Marroco, BAT's chief executive, said he was 'excited' by the launch of loyalty scheme Velo Plus in the US. 'Globally, Velo continues to gain volume share in this fast-growing category, driven by the US and our continued leadership position in AME (Americas & Europe),' he said, highlighting a strong performance in the UK, Scandinavia and Poland. BAT said it was expecting full-year revenues to grow between 1% and 2% following a stronger-than-expected half-year performance. It had previously forecast growth of 1%. The company continues to make the bulk of its sales from traditional cigarettes, which include the Pall Mall and Camel brands. It said the segment remained 'under pressure' with the volume of sales about 9% lower across the industry over the year to date, but that it was gaining market share for brands including Lucky Strike. Mr Marroco said BAT's vape sales were being affected by 'illicit' products in the US and Canada, which were driving down sales of legal devices. BAT has previously warned that customers turning to illegal disposable vapes was hurting sales of its own vape product, Vuse, and urged a government crackdown on the market.
