Susan Sarandon’s daughter Eva Amurri recently underwent breast reduction surgery – and has gotten candid about the ups and downs of the recovery process. 

The media personality, 40, underwent the procedure earlier this month – after she hit back at critics last year who were ‘scandalized’ by her breasts in her low-cut wedding gown.

Jumping to her main Instagram page to share an ᴀssortment of snaps, the mom-of-three took a quick mirror selfie while sitting on the wooden floor next to a staircase. 

She held a small smile on her face while sporting a comfy, green and white-striped tracksuit as well as a ɴuᴅᴇ bralette top with padding. 

The next slide showed a plastic water bottle and Eva typed out, ‘If you think you’re going to use your Stanley while you recover, think again!

‘It’s way too heavy to safely hold after breast surgery so I’m using this water bottle with a straw in it.’

The star then shared she has been having difficulties sleeping, which has been ‘the worst part of recovery.’ 

Eva added that the pillows she purchased ahead of the surgery have not helped her get a good night sleep. 

‘I hate sleeping on my back, so I know these next few weeks are gonna be rough for me with sleeping,’ the Californication actress admitted to her followers. 

Since she is not allowed to have an ‘official’ work out for six weeks, Amurri has only been able to go on daily walks. 

‘I’m not very good at motivating myself with exercise, so I got a Fitbit to help me. So far so good!’ 

Eva uploaded another snap while at a hair salon and explained, ‘Blow drying my own hair turns out to be an absolute no-go. Lifting my arms and holding the hairdryer is really not good for my healing. 

‘I decided to lean in and treat myself to a multi pack of blowouts at a salon I can walk to, and I’m so happy I did.’

A form of self-care that the actress has also been focusing on is proper nourishment. ‘I’ve really been enjoying helping my body heal by giving it what it needs to feel its best,’ she wrote alongside a pH๏τo of what appeared to be tasty smoothies.

She explained, ‘It’s been strange to see my body bruised, and recovering from trauma. It’s not an easy sight, and it’s definitely brought up a lot for me.

‘I’m looking at these next few weeks as a great opportunity to be kind to myself and nurture myself.’ 

The last slide in the star’s Instagram post included a pH๏τo as she took time to rest while her body continues to heal. 

In the caption, she added, ‘”Resting” is harder for me than I realized. I feel a lot of guilt when I’m not doing something that can be seen objectively as productive. 

‘This recovery time has been an interesting lens through which to view my own thoughts and feelings about myself and my own value. It’s something I want to keep thinking about.’ 

Earlier this month, Eva announced on social media that she would be undergoing the breast reduction procedure and further opened up about the decision on her blog called Happily Eva After. 

She expressed that it was her ‘first surgery’ and also the first time she has ever been put to sleep under anesthesia.

Earlier this month, Eva announced on social media that she would be undergoing the breast augmentation procedure and further opened up about the decision on her blog called Happily Eva After; seen in 2024 in NYC

The media personality shared that she had 32F breasts prior to the procedure and said that there were both pros and cons to having larger breasts. 

The star typed that, ‘having extremely large breasts can not only affect you physically but also mentally. It can make you extremely self-conscious and insecure. 

‘They hurt your back, they’re hard to clothe, and most importantly: you can’t take them off and take a break. That’s been the hardest part. Having huge boobs has been a blast at times!’ 

When she became a mother, Eva expressed that her breast size fluctuated and also ‘contributed to drooping and sagging.’ 

After turning 40 earlier this year, she ‘realized that I can absolutely do scary things, and most importantly that living how I want to live in my own body is WORTH IT.’ 

The surgery also comes less than a year after Eva hit back at critics who had been ‘scandalized’ by the plunging wedding gown that she wore at her nuptials in July 2024. 

She said ‘I do’ to chef Ian Hock after the pair became engaged in 2023. The actress was previously married to Kyle Martino from 2011 until their divorce was finalized in 2020 – and the former couple share three children.

After garnering comments that told her that her breasts should have been ‘put away’ – she jumped to Instagram to offer her own response

During the romantic ceremony, Eva had donned a Kim Kᴀssas wedding gown as well as a long, sheer veil. 

After garnering comments that told her that her breasts should have been ‘put away’ – she jumped to Instagram to offer her own response. 

Alongside a pH๏τo of herself posing with Ian on their wedding day, she typed out: ‘And to anyone scandalized by my breasts not being “put away”….’ 

Eva then posted the same image to zoom in closer to her chest and added, ‘Feel free to screensH๏τ this for later,’ along with a kissing face emoji.
