Notorious scrounger Cheryl Prudham is demanding a £5k tummy tuck on the NHS after being left with saggy skin following the birth of her 12th baby.
The controversial mum says she’s been left with an ‘unsightly stomach’ which makes her feel depressed and says the taxpayer should pick up the bill again.
Cheryl, 33, sparked outrage when she chose to have an NHS C-section - which costs the health service £2,500 with her 12th baby because she was “too tired” to go through a natural birth.
Brazen Cheryl - who splashes her £40,000 a year in benefits on holidays and designer clothes - hopes a tummy tuck will boost her sex life as she feels self-conscious in bed.
BENEFITS MUM CHERYL PRUDHAM: 'MY CHEATING HUBBY IS HAVING HIS NHS VASECTOMY REVERSED FOR BABY NO 13'
She moans: “I’ve always pinged back to shape after each baby but my NHS C-section has left me with a piece of hanging skin under the scar - it’s so ugly. I’m a size 10 but long to be a size 8 again – it’s getting me down.
“I’ve been to my doctor and told him it’s making me depressed and he has referred me to the hospital. I’m hopeful the NHS will pay because it’s affecting my mental health.
“The NHS carried out the C-section which left me looking like this so it’s only right they sort it out.”
Cheryl adds: “People can criticize me but I’m trying to get back in shape by eating healthily and doing exercise – including lots of sex.
“My sex life is amazing but it’d be even better if the NHS sorted my stomach out. I’d be less self-conscious. My husband says he doesn’t mind but I feel very insecure.”
