‘Jordan must stop these ops for her kids’sake!’

Alicia Douvall made headlines as a surgery addict – now she warns that Jordan risks ‘seriously damaging’ herself with more work

- By Poppy Danby

Former glamour F model Alicia Douvall has spent more than £1m on surgery after going under the knife a shocking 350 times.

However, she vowed to end her obsession with cosmetic procedures after she nearly died on the operating table in 2016, attempting to replace faulty boobs implants.

BOTCHED FACELIFT

Now Alicia, 38, who lived with Jordan – also known as Katie Price – in the Celebrity Big Brother house in 2015, is urging her former housemate to stop having surgery following her recent op to repair a botched facelift, saying she risks causing herself “serious damage”.

Mum-of-two Alicia says, “I became addicted to surgery from a young age, so it’s hard to watch Katie going through the same thing.

“For me, going under the knife was my way of gaining control after a bad upbringing and the madness of the modelling world. And I believe Katie also uses it as a coping mechanism for her chaotic lifestyle.

“Just because surgery addiction isn’t as visible as alcoholism or drugs, it doesn’t mean that it’s any less of a struggle.”

And Alicia worries that Jordan may end up regretting her surgery in the future.

She explains, “Katie needs to realise that plastic surgery isn’t her friend. She’s 39 years old, has five children and should understand that she’s never going to be 20 again. She needs to focus on who she is now.”

REGRETS

She adds, “I had lots of work done in my 20s and I never thought about what the consequenc­es would be as I got older. I really regret it now and I often sit and dream about what I’d look like if I’d never had any surgery when I was a silly and gullible young girl.

“We were both too young to have surgery and that’s why we’ve had problems. Katie needs to stop, like I did, before she makes things any worse. It’s possible to cover up a botched boob job, but it’s impossible to hide if facial surgery ends up going wrong.”

Instead, Alicia says Jordan should focus on other parts of her life. She says, “Katie needs to get a grip and have some tough love – because surgery will never help her gain control of her life.

“She needs to stop the ops for the sake of her five children – and she can still keep her great body through a healthy diet and exercise.

“Katie’s a strong woman with an amazing life and a successful career. She doesn’t need to fight to be in the spotlight any more.”
