Lily Allen has explained the reason she decided to get a boob job just weeks after leaving a trauma centre.
The singer, 40, has had a tough year since her split from David Harbour at the end of 2024 and revealed in February she had gone under the knife.
She revealed the surgery on her podcast, stating she did it for herself in order to ‘glow up’.
But now she has told The Observer that she really did it because she had lost a lot of weight after her split from David and was concerned that when the weight returned it would ‘go to her legs’.
She said: ‘Because I’ve always been really small up top, I was worried about becoming really bottom-heavy. And so I felt like…
‘This is how I talk to myself! I felt like if I got boobs, it would make me feel better about gaining weight. So that was my reasoning.’
She had the plastic surgery right after spending two weeks in a trauma centre in Nashville due to the impact of the split which she has now described as ‘f***ing excruciatingly painful’ as well as ‘really helpful’.
In the interview she described visiting Kris Jenner’s plastic surgeon in Manhattan to find ‘her authentic self’ with the surgery – just days after spending three weeks in the trauma centre also trying to find her ‘authentic self’.
Lily told how she doesn’t remember much from that period of time but described how she was given Percocet by two of the nurses looking after her following the operation despite being sober.
