Chantelle Houghton: Boob job was cry for attention

Chantelle Houghton has reiterated that she regrets undergoing cosmetic surgery. The former Big Brother star previously admitted that she should not have had a boob job and said that she hopes to have the implants removed.

Asked why she had the surgery in the first place, Houghton told Heat: “I was getting divorced, so it was an attempt to shift my attention somewhere else. I think it was a cry for attention.

“I was about a B/C cup and went up to an E/F. I never thought I was flat-chested, I just wanted to change myself completely.”

Asked if she would go ahead with a boob reduction, she added: “I’ve had a consultation with [surgeon] Robin Van Look, and what I really need is a smaller implant and an uplift. But that means scarring that might show. And it might mean moving my nipples.”

Houghton warned girls thinking of having a boob job to reconsider, explaining: “You don’t realise the amount of scarring you’ll be left with.”
