TOWIE’S Chloe Sims insists she’s delighted with her newly enhanced bum, despite previously saying she was happy with her natural looks

- By Anna Matheson

he vowed that she was finally S comfortabl­e in her own skin in 2014 but, last week, Chloe Sims showed off the results of her latest bum enlargemen­t. The TOWIE favourite flew out to Marbella earlier this year to undergo a Brazilian butt lift, which involves removing fat from one area of the body and using it to reshape the bum. And the star tells Closer she couldn’t be happier with the results.

Chloe tells us, “I love my new bum, but I probably wouldn’t do it again because of the recovery time. You’re not allowed to sit down for four weeks and I had to sleep on my tummy. Fortunatel­y, I’ve got a wide sofa, so I could lay on my belly watching TV.”

It’s not the first time Chloe has had work done on her behind. Speaking to Closer in 2014, the 35-year-old admitted she’d had bum enhancing injections after feeling unhappy about her “unsexy and boyish” figure. But despite being disappoint­ed with the result, Chloe said she wouldn’t have any more extreme bum implant surgery – insisting she was learning to love herself for who she is.

BODY INSECURITI­ES

The star said at the time, “I’ve punished my body with surgery and eating disorders, but I finally feel good naked… I’ve stripped back my look and I prefer it. “I had my bottom sculpted in 2012 and was really unhappy with the result. There wasn’t much of a change and the effect soon wore off – plus, the recovery was so painful! But I’m not planning on having bottom implants now – it’s a huge undertakin­g for your body. I’m not happy with my breasts, either – they’re a 34E and look very fake. I had them done when I was 25 and went from a 32B cup to a D, then to a 34E. I’d love to go back to a B-cup, but surgery is so dangerous and I’ve got [my daughter Madison, 12] to think about. Right now, I’m just accepting my body for what it is.” Despite saying she’d learned to accept herself, the mum-of-one tells us she

doesn’t consider her new bum unnatural as she didn’t have any implants put in.

Chloe says, “Anything like that [bum reshaping] is always a big decision, but it was something I’d thought about for many years. And I’m very pleased with the results. I don’t see this as not being natural as I didn’t have implants; I just had my own fat moved. It’s still part of me.”

Over the years, Chloe has undergone over £32k worth of cosmetic work, including her two boob jobs. She’s also had lip fillers, teeth veneers and regular Botox. The star also relies on a high-maintenanc­e beauty routine, including fake tan, false lashes and hair extensions.

ROCKY LOVE LIFE

As well as her body insecuriti­es, Chloe has also endured a turbulent love life. The star, who has appeared on TOWIE since 2011 and runs her own beauty salon in Essex, split from Madison’s father shortly after her birth and went on to date a mystery man – whom she has refused to name – on and off for seven years. Chloe has previously admitted, “He’s the love of my life and I do think no one will ever compare to him.” But the star went on to add that the couple were unable to make it work.

More recently, she has dated TOWIE co-star Elliot Wright, 36, and has also been linked to nightclub entreprene­ur Joe Fournier 35, as well as reality star Pete Wicks, 28. But Chloe, who is currently single, says she isn’t worrying about her love life.

She says, “I’m the most single I’ve ever been. I haven’t been out, to be honest, and when I’m out with my TOWIE friends or my pals who aren’t on TV, I don’t really step outside the circle, so I don’t really know where I’m meant to meet anyone.”

Chloe explained that her friends try to set her up on dates, as she avoids dating apps. She adds, “I get a lot of weirdos messaging me on social media, so I feel like I’d be opening myself up to dangerous situations. But all my friends are single. I don’t feel stressed about it; if everyone was settled, I’d probably be like ‘OK, what’s going on?’ But it is what it is.”
