Jess Wright has revealed that she had secret breast reduction surgery just before Christmas.
The former TOWIE star, 39, had her implants removed after first getting a boob job which was documented on the show in 2011.
After having them done originally she went up to a 32DD but after her latest surgery they will now be a C cup.
She told Closer of why she decided to have them removed: ‘I was so sick of my big boobs – every single red-carpet dress I wanted to wear I had to dress for my boobs.
‘My recommendation to any girl out there who has lovely boobs to begin with – which I did have and I still do have, thank God, since having them out – is don’t have any implants.
‘As I’ve got older, I was just worried about having foreign bodies in my body. I just got to the point where I didn’t want anything in me anymore – and if I ever have a daughter, I wouldn’t want her to either. I want to be able to enjoy me. I want to be me again.’
Jess Wright has revealed that she had secret breast reduction surgery just before Christmas and is still recovering

She added that her recovery as been tough while trying to look after her two-year-old son Presley who she shares with husband William Lee-Kemp.
Jess told how she now wants to ‘go back to her roots’ and is also now embracing her natural darker hair.
In 2016, Jess told how she ‘hated’ her boob job but two doctors had refused to perform a reduction for her.
Previously, she told MailOnline: ‘They went too big when I had my boob job and I’ve been back to two surgeons to get a reduction and they’ve both said: ‘You’ve got great boobs, don’t change them’ but I just think they’re too big.
‘I was happy with them at first but I was younger – times have changed and fashion has changed.’
Jess added that she wished that she hadn’t had featured her boob job on TOWIE.
She said: ‘One thing I do regret is my boob job being on TOWIE. It probably wasn’t the best of moves but at the same time whatever.
‘I think wait till you’re at a good age before surgery. All these young girls getting their lips done and getting fillers I don’t agree with that.’
After having them done originally she went up to a 32DD but after her latest surgery they will now be a C cup (seen last November)
She told Closer of why she decided to have them removed: ‘I was so sick of my big boobs – every single red-carpet dress I wanted to wear I had to dress for my boobs’ (seen in 2011)
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 get anything done except my boobs, I could probably do with something but I don’t like the fake look so I try and avoid that and keep it real.
‘My lips are fortunate because they are quite big but if I had really thin lips I might because of the pressures. I could probably have them down now but I choose not to.’
It comes after last month Jess opened up about her son Presley’s devastating health battle as she revealed she prays to God in hopes that he will be fine.

She announced in August the devastating news that her son had been diagnosed with a rare congenital heart disease called ‘Bicuspid Aortic Valve’.
Bicuspid Aortic Valve only affects one percent of the population and means the heart valve has only two small parts, called leaflets, instead of the normal three.
In a recent interview, the reality star ᴀssured that her son is doing well but that he will require monitoring & care over time.
Jess also said that you would never guess anything wrong just by looking at her son because ‘he’s a little dream’.
When asked when Presley will go for surgery, she said that she is unsure at the moment, but explained how she would take away his pain in a heartbeat if she could.
Jess and her husband William met in May, 2019, tied in the knot in September, 2021, and then welcomed their first born in May, 2022.
In August, the sister of Mark Wright 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 being constantly monitored by doctors and hopes he will be able to have as normal life as possible, but revealed the toddler would need to have open-heart surgery at least twice in his life.
She added that her recovery as been tough while trying to look after her two-year-old son Presley who she shares with husband William Lee-Kemp
She admitted they had been trying to cope with the news for several months and had been nervous about sharing it, but wanted to raise awareness and hear from other parents who have also gone through it ‘to know that we are not alone.’
In her lengthy caption, Jess began with: ‘Hey everyone. I have been apprehensive & nervous about writing this post because I knew that once I shared it, it would become even more real, but ultimately I couldn’t hide away from the reality anymore & would love to also 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 & happens to a small 1% of us.’
WHAT IS A BICUSPID AORTIC VALVE?
A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a heart defect that typically develops when two of the aortic valve’s three flaps fuse during fetal development. The aortic valve controls blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta, this being the main artery that supplies blood to the body.
It is the most common congenital heart defect, affecting an average 1.3% of adults and 1% of the general population. It is more prevalent in girls than boys.
Long-term it can be a cause of heart failure, but BAV symptoms might not be evident until adulthood, commonly in middle age. Symptoms include: Shortness of breath with exertion, Chest pain, Lightheadedness, fainting, rapid and irregular heartbeat and pale skin.*

‘Essentially, instead of having three leaflets in his aortic valve, like most, he only has two. This condition affects how blood flows from the heart to the rest of the body and will require monitoring & care over time.’
She went on: ‘I won’t go into the full details right now, but whilst this is please God not a fatal disease, we are coming to terms with the fact that our son will need intervention at least twice in his life.’
‘By intervention I mean open heart surgery. Saying those words out loud physically hurts my soul, hence why for a few months we have been coping with this news & trying to navigate it.’
‘We have been, & will be monitoring Presley’s heart closely with doctors every 8-12 weeks, hoping & praying every time we go, that we get the results we need.’
‘Ultimately, he will then have intervention when necessary, but the older he can be for that, the better.’
‘We know that Presley is strong and resilient. With the help of modern day medicine, Presley will live as normal life as the next child, we hope & pray.’
Reaching out to her followers for any advice, Jess 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 & get information, express my feelings, find answers to questions, & provide much-needed support and knowledge to others in need.’
‘I would love to hear from any other parents who are navigating this unknown & very scary territory, as knowledge is power & it is a comfort to know that we are not alone.’
‘We are so grateful for the love and support from our family, friends, and this amazing community. Thank you for your positive thoughts, prayers, & for helping us raise awareness about heart health.’
‘I will be chatting to the Brompton Fountain children’s charity too, & hopefully helping as best I can in their fundraising, along the way.’
The reality star concluded her post: ‘Wishing you all a lovely bank holiday Monday ❤️’.
