Recently Sam requested some more procedures to be performed on the NHS.

He claims to need £3,000 Botox treatments to stop anxiety-induced sweating, brought on by his 'fame', and his nose job was also covered by the NHS.

Taking to Twitter after his attack, Sam wrote 'So Essex didn't show me much love last night.'
