Jess Wright reveals secret breast reduction surgery as she admits ‘I just want to be me again’ after first getting a boob job while on TOWIE
Jess Wright has revealed she had a secret breast reduction surgery just before Christmas.
The former TOWIE star, 39, had her implants removed after getting a boob job for the first time, which was documented on the show in 2011.
After originally having them done she went down to a 32DD, but after her last surgery they will now be a C cup.
She told me Closer on why she decided to have them removed: ‘I was so tired of my big breasts – every red carpet dress I wanted to wear, I had to dress for my breasts.
‘My recommendation to any girl who has nice breasts to begin with – which I had and which I still have, thank God, since I had them removed – is not to get implants.
‘As I got older, I worried that I had foreign bodies in my body. I had just gotten to the point where I didn’t want anything inside me anymore – and if I ever had a daughter, I wouldn’t want that anymore either. I want to be able to enjoy myself. I want to be myself again.’

She added that her recovery has been tough as she tries to care for her two-year-old son Presley, whom she shares with husband William Lee-Kemp.
Jess shared how she now wants to ‘go back to her roots’ and is now embracing her natural, darker hair.
In 2016, Jess told how she ‘hated’ her boob job, but two doctors had refused to carry out a reduction for her.
She previously told MailOnline: ‘They got too big when I had my breasts corrected and I went back to two surgeons for a reduction and they both said, ‘You have great breasts, don’t change them. ‘But I just think they’re too big.
‘At first I was happy with it, but I was younger: times have changed and fashions have changed.’
Jess added that she wished she hadn’t shown off her boob job on TOWIE.
She said: ‘One thing I regret is doing a boob job on TOWIE. It probably wasn’t the best move, but at the same time, whatever.
‘I think you should wait until you’re a good age before having surgery. I don’t agree with all those young girls who get their lips done and fillers.’

In 2016, Jess told how she ‘hated’ her boob job but two doctors had refused to perform a reduction for her (seen in 2012 with ex-boyfriend Ricky Rayment)
‘I wouldn’t want to get anything done other than my boobs, I could probably use something but I don’t like the fake look so I try to avoid that and keep it real.
‘My lips are lucky in that they are quite big, but if I had very thin lips it might be because of the pressure. I could probably have them now, but I choose not to.”
It comes after Jess opened up about her son Presley’s devastating health battle last month when she revealed she’s praying to God in the hope he’s doing well.
She announced the devastating news in August that her son had been diagnosed with a rare congenital heart disease called Bicuspid Aortic Valve.
The bicuspid aortic valve affects only one percent of the population and means that the heart valve has only two small parts, called leaflets, instead of the normal three.
In a recent interview, the reality star assured that her son is doing well, but he will need supervision and care over time.
Jess also said that you would never guess something wrong just by looking at her son because “he’s a little dream.”
When asked when Presley will have surgery, she said she is unsure at this point, but explained how she would take his pain away in a heartbeat if she could.
Jess and her husband William met in May 2019, married in September 2021, and then welcomed their firstborn in May 2022.
In August, Mark Wright’s sister shared the devastating news about her son’s rare heart disease, which requires open heart surgery.
She told her 1.5 million followers that the news “physically hurts my soul.”
Jess said he was constantly monitored by doctors and hoped he could live as normal a life as possible, but revealed the toddler would need open heart surgery at least twice in his life.
She added that her recovery has been tough as she tries to care for her two-year-old son Presley, whom she shares with husband William Lee-Kemp.
She admitted that they had been trying to process the news for several months and were nervous about sharing it, but she wanted to raise awareness and hear from other parents who have also been through it “to know that we are not alone.”
In her lengthy caption, Jess began, “Hey everyone. I was worried and nervous writing this post because I knew that once I shared it it would become even more real, but in the end I couldn’t hide from reality anymore and I would also like to raise awareness. ‘
‘A few months ago we learned that our son Presley has a congenital heart disease called ‘Bicuspid Aortic Valve’. Something he was born with and that only happens to a small 1% of us.’
‘Essentially, instead of having three leaflets in his aortic valve, like most, he only has two. This condition affects the way blood flows from the heart to the rest of the body and will require monitoring and care over time.”
She continued: ‘I won’t go into the full details now, but while please, this is not a fatal disease, we have to accept that our son will need interventions at least twice in his life.’
‘By intervention I mean open heart surgery. Saying these words out loud physically hurts my soul. That’s why we’ve been dealing with this news for a few months now and trying to navigate it.”
“We have and will continue to monitor Presley’s heart closely every eight to 12 weeks, with doctors, hoping and praying each time we go that we get the results we need.”
‘Ultimately he will have to intervene if necessary, but the older he can be, the better.’
“We know Presley is strong and resilient. With the help of modern medicine, Presley will live as normal a life as the next child, we hope and pray.”
Jess reached out to her followers for advice and also thanked her family and friends for their support during the ‘scary’ time.
She wrote, “I also know that this platform will help me share and obtain information, express my feelings, find answers to questions, and provide much-needed support and knowledge to others in need.”
‘I would like to hear from other parents who are navigating this unknown and very scary territory, because knowledge is power and it is a comfort to know that we are not alone.’
“We are so grateful for the love and support of our family, friends and this wonderful community. Thank you for your positive thoughts, prayers and for helping us raise awareness about heart health.”
‘I’ll also be talking to the Brompton Fountain children’s charity, and hopefully help with their fundraising as best I can along the way.’
The reality star concluded her message: “Wishing you all a happy holiday Monday .”
