Charlotte Crosby of Geordie Shore has revealed why she chose to get her lip fillers removed at the end of last year – and it wasn’t because of haters.
It’s no secret that the reality TV star has received a lot of backlash online for her cosmetic operations in recent years.
In 2021, on her podcast Values and Vibrators, Charlotte said: ‘If I had a pound for every time someone told me my lips were too big, you know what, I would be s**ting money.’
Even documentaries have mocked her, most notably Channel 5’s Celebrities: What’s Happened to Your Face? in which they studied the changes to Charlotte’s appearance throughout the years.
Charlotte’s representative informed Channel 5 about the potential implications airing the show could have on the star’s mental health, prompting the channel to make an apology.
Who knew a person’s appearance could make such a stir?
Charlotte definitely does, but trolls aside, the reality star has admitted that having a child ended her nearly decade-long love affair with lip fillers.
Charlotte welcomed her daughter, Alba Jean, with boyfriend Jake Ankers on October 15 last year.
Speaking on Nova Podcast’s Charlotte Crosby: Always On, the Geordie said: ‘I did not get my lips dissolved because of trolls because, quite frankly, I’ve been trolled for so long about them, and I did not care.
‘I absolutely loved my lips, but it got to the point after pregnancy, they had swelled a lot.’

Charlotte highlighted how in pregnancy ‘everything’ swells, including your lips, and while watching herself on Geordie Shore: The Reunion, she thought: ‘I look ridiculous’.
‘For the first time, I was like, “I look ridiculous”,’ she said. ‘And obviously I’ve had a little girl now, you know what I mean?’
Never short of a sense of humour, Charlotte wondered whether her daughter could even see her making silly noises and playing with her ‘under them humongous lips’.
‘Can she even see who I am as a person?’ she asked.
‘Eight years I’d been getting me lips done, that’s a lot of filler in them lips. I thought, it’s all got to go.’
