Bobby Norris reveals he spent over £50,000 on fillers before his facelift and admits he wants to end a seven-year feud with Gemma Collins

Bobby Norris has revealed he spent over £50,000 on fillers before his facelift and admitted that he wants to end a seven-year feud with Gemma Collins.

The former The Only Way Is Essex star, 39, appeared on The Vanessa Feltz Show on Wednesday, where he opened up about undergoing the procedure following a decade of 'abusing fillers'.

Speaking to Bobby, Vanessa said: 'One of the reasons you've been in the papers a lot recently is all the cosmetic work and treatments, and surgeries. You've had quite a lot of them.'

The reality star replied: 'I think the penny is slowly dropping that I'm really open.

'I think to be on a reality show for 10 years, for 15 years, do various reality shows and social media, it's an open book. 

'I'm not gonna put the genie back in the bottle. And I think for people who follow and watch on social media and TV and stuff, I think it's important to be honest. 

'I've documented the whole thing. I mean, there are photos and videos I could have posted that I didn't. Do you know what I mean?

'I think a lot of people think surgery is like going on Stars in Your Eyes. You walk through the door, and in 20 minutes, you will have a new face or new boobs. That isn't the reality.'

Vanessa then showed a picture of Bobby when he first arrived on TOWIE in 2012, pre-filler and surgery.

Asking the reality star what work he's had done to his face, he replied: 'Right so what's still left? 

'Nose is different, teeth is different, hairline is different, beard, face, cheeks, neck, everything. Apart from the eyes.'

Vanessa replied: 'And you're only 39 years old? 

'So when you look at that face there, and then you look at what you've done now, I mean I can't really work out why you would have done that. 

'I mean, you're a very lovely-looking guy.'

Bobby said: 'I think there's still this mindset, and it's kind of a tradition when people have facelifts. It was within a certain age, and I think people say probably you did look old. 

'Now I didn't go get it to make me look 16, but I've been on TOWIE for 10 years, and in the industry I abused fillers, I'd stretch my cheeks out, my lips out. 

'Now, if you're quite subtle with them, you can have them removed.'  

Vanessa asked: 'How much have you spent on fillers over those years?'

Bobby revealed: 'Oh, if you were.. I think someone said it's more than 50 grand.'

Elsewhere on the show, Bobby revealed he wanted to end his long feud with Gemma, which has seen them not speak for seven years.

Asked by Vanessa what he'd say to his former best friend if she was there in the studio, Bobby replied: 'I'd say let's catch up. Let's go and have some lunch. We used to have the best times. 

'We would go to a health farm for one day and still be there a week later, we would just ring down and say, 'We're staying another day'.

'We all grow up, don't we? And things that you fall out over, and it wasn't anything that was overly deep.

'I'm just about loyalty. But what I've realised is, and I think maybe it's part of growing up and stuff is what you bring to the table, whether it's a relationship or friendship.

'You can bring your 100% loyalty to someone, say if it's a fellah, if they're only going to match it with their 70, can I be angry that you're only putting 70 into my 100?'

Bobby joined TOWIE in 2012 and became known for his friendship with Gemma Collins and romances with the likes of ex Harry Derbidge.

In 2024 he was forced to shut down speculation he was undergoing gender reassignment surgery after having multiple cosmetic treatments, transforming his appearance.

Telling followers: 'I've had upper left blepharoplasty, an upper eye lid surgery. I've had my buccal fat removed from my cheeks, I've had liposuction under my chin and 360 body liposuction.'

He has previously admitted to 'falling down the rabbit hole of having fillers' after being offered free treatments during his time on TOWIE.

Last year, Bobby spoke about the realisation he had gone 'too far', admitting: 'Sometimes you aren't aware of how you look until you see certain pictures or a paparazzi shot. I don't look like me anymore.'

Cosmetic surgery expert Dr Mo Hamed, who specialises in natural aesthetics, previously told the Daily Mail: 'When Bobby started on TOWIE, he was very baby faced, given his young age, with minimal to no treatments.

'Throughout the years, he's had multiple cosmetic procedures including Botox, jawline filler, and cheek filler but now Bobby has taken his adjustments to the next level by undergoing surgical, non-reversible enhancements.

'He has recently spoken about having his buccal fat removed, which is where a surgeon takes the fat between your cheek bones and your jawline to give the client a more contoured and sunken in model appearance and chiselled jawline.

'But the long-term impact of losing your buccal fat pad can be disastrous because it can help to give the face a more youthful look as you get older. Bobby has also described having 360 liposuction.'
