TOWIE’s Chloe Meadows, has revealed to Closer that having a boob job has completely changed her life, admitting, “Having my boobs reduced was the best thing I’ve ever done. I wish I’d done it sooner! They were so big it was a problem but now my confidence has soared."
She added, "I struggled to wear bikinis, backless dresses, nice little tops. It bothered me so much. It is major surgery so I was terrified and it was a hard recovery, but I would do it again to be able to wear what I want."
“I don’t wear bras now. Before, I was probably a 32F and really conscious of it. I used to hide them. I’d wear minimiser bras and things where you wouldn’t notice my boobs. They made me look bigger than I was. They made my back hurt. My waist is quite small so they were too big for my frame.
“My mum went to the doctors recently and was also told she needs a reduction. I think it runs in the family. I’m glad I’ve done it now rather than when I’m Mum’s age.
“I’d thought about it for so many years and it has completely changed my life. I’d recommend it to anyone.”
Chloe previously opened up on Instagram to thank cosmetic surgery clinic The Belvedere Clinic for her recent breast reduction.
Fans of the reality star will know that Chloe had been considering a reduction for a while, and she finally went ahead with the procedure – and she couldn’t be happier with the results.
Posing in a bandeau style bikini after a stay at a spa, Chloe wrote, “I feel like a new person! I’ve had massages, facials, attended boxfit classes, yoga classes and eaten healthy, tasty plant-based food.
“And another thank you @belvedereclinic without you I wouldn’t be able to wear a bikini like this.”
And the clinic shared some videos on their own social media pages of Chloe’s consultation process, writing, “@chloejmeadows had contemplated breast reduction surgery for some time. We are so pleased that she felt completely comfortable and assured that she would be well looked after with us.”

I had different consultations with different surgeons and finally found a place that I trusted and felt so comfortable.
“I know most people want bigger boobs but for me smaller more manageable boobs were the dream and I’ve never been happier, it’s changed my life.
“I think unless you have really big real boobs nobody would ever understand the struggle! I’ve definitely made the right decision and I couldn’t be happier with the results.”
