Danniella Westbrook moves on from THAT pricey Burberry look to Aquascutum coat after revealing she will undergo six more expensive procedures over 18 months to repair her face

5 days ago 15

Danniella Westbrook recreated her infamous Burberry look this week, but on a tighter budget.

Back in 2008 the ex EastEnders star strutted down Bond Street, London, decked out in thousands of pounds of head to toe Burberry - even her daughter's buggy boasted the iconic checked pattern.

But for an appearance on Vanessa Feltz's Channel 5 show on Monday, the star opted for a slightly less pricey take on the checked design, modelling a £300 plaid-lined trench from Burberry's rival Aquascutum, teamed with an £80 Marc Jacobs tote bag.

She added a chic red cardigan and trainers to complete her TV look.

Danniella was on the Channel 5 show to discuss her latest surgeries, revealing she will undergo six more procedures over the course of 18 months before her face is fully repaired.

The star, 52, jetted to Dubai in March to have a full face, neck and brow lift, as well as a lip and nose reconstruction.

While Danniella has proudly been showing the results of her new look, the actress confirmed on Monday that she will have yet another surgery later this week to have a metal cheekbone implanted in her face.

She said: 'I've been for umpteen surgeries, I'm coming up to surgery number six at the moment this Thursday, so it's quite scary.

'Since I got older the osteoporosis has set in on my bone. So on this side of my face, I don't have any bone at all.

'So they've got to rebuild all my bones. At the moment it's filler, but they've really got to do a metal bone. There's got to be put in there.

'So I've got to do at some point a metal cheekbone here and connect it to further up in here where the bone isn't corroding.'

Speaking to Vanessa Feltz on her Channel 5 chat show, Danniella was asked by the broadcaster how many more procedures she was facing.

She said: 'Another six to go, I think after this one. The next one they're doing is like a hare lip reversal. 

'Because my lip's so far up now where it's pulling up that way. Every two and a half, three months, I'm in surgery.

'I hate looking in the mirror. I've just recently had to have a facelift to realign both sides of my face because they were so wonky, just to get this nose in a certain position so we could start working on that.'

Danniella revealed she's been facing online trolling over her appearance, telling Vanessa: 'I've people telling me to die and go kill myself and stuff like that. 

'I've had terrible trolling but I've also had a hell of a lot of nice people. I've had a lot of people that support me and a lot of lovely people online. 

'I think sometimes it's best just not to look at it so I don't often run my social media.'

In March, Danniella jetted off to Dubai where she underwent facial reconstruction at the Gargash Hospital in the UAE.

Danniella said at the time: 'I have three more nose operations to go. So we’re over half way there now. Facelift has really changed me and given me my confidence back.'  

The surgery was a huge milestone for Danniella, who has struggled with a collapsed septum following years of drug abuse.

Danniella used surgeon Dr Parviz Sadigh, who has carried out operations on her in the past and has now undertaken the latest bid to rebuild her face.

The TV personality found fame at the age of 16 in EastEnders but due to her cocaine use producers were forced to terminate her contract and she was written out of the soap again in 1996.

Danniella has spoken in the past about how her addictions began, stating: 'I was always in clubs and everyone was doing coke and it was glamorous – except obviously, it wasn't at all. I was just very young, very stupid and very easily led...

'I think there should be someone at EastEnders to say to young people when they come in, "Look, your life is about to change, you're going to be invited places, and you'll be offered drugs."...

'Someone who can tell them what sort of people are about, and what sort of papers, and how quickly what you've worked for all those years can be gone'. 

She estimated she has spent around £250k on the drug.
