THESE days, it's more shocking to discover a celebrity ISN'T on fat jabs than one who is.
But despite unashamedly admitting to her love of a cosmetic trend, Olivia Attwood vows she'll never jump on the Ozempic bandwagon.

The reason? She wants a BIGGER bum, not a shrinking one.
'I'm always here for the latest fad, but the jabs are actually the one thing that has never tempted me,' reveals Olivia.
'My whole goal is to actually grow an arse in the gym, so I feel like it would be counterproductive.
'I'm constantly chugging protein shakes and doing squats. I'm trying to get more curves, not have less.'
Fat jabs are just one of the cosmetic surgery trends that the Love Island legend delves into in the new series of her ITV2 show, Olivia Attwood's The Price of Perfection.
And after investigating the surge in popularity of Ozempic and Mounjaro – or GLP-1 receptor agonists, as they are known in the medical community – Olivia also has serious concerns about their safety.
'I think we are still in our infancy of knowing how these drugs behave,' says the 34 year old.
'For some people, they can be very powerful and life-changing, but people are having massive health issues when they are being dished out by non-medics and they are being abused back to back over several years.'
Given her penchant for a bigger butt, Olivia admits she has considered a Brazilian butt lift [BBL] – a procedure which sees a surgeon suck fat from the belly, hips, lower back and thighs, then transfer it into the bum to create bigger hips and a smaller waist.
BBLs are the fastest growing cosmetic procedure in the UK, with its popularity soaring by 20 per cent year on year.

Frighteningly, however, it has also earned the terrifying reputation of being the deadliest procedure, with some figures estimating one in 3,000 BBLs can result in death.
Naturally, Olivia tackles the rising demand for a Kardashian-style booty in her new series, travelling to Turkey to be there in the operating theatre to watch one girl go under the knife in pursuit of her dream derriere.
'A BBL is definitely one of those things I have looked into having,' Olivia admits.
'But for me, the risk doesn't outweigh the result.
'It's really hard to find someone who has had it done once and is super happy.
'It's the procedure that requires the most revision surgeries and most people go back, like, three times.
'Who has the time to lie on your front for eight weeks, three times a year while you are healing?
'For that reason, it doesn't appeal to me.'
Olivia has confessed to undergoing a boob job followed by a reduction, chin liposuction and contouring, veneers, lip fillers and Botox.
I could easily hit the £100,000 mark if I get my teeth done again

But while her open nature is one of the reasons she has so many devotees – Olivia has more than 2.5 million followers on Instagram, while her So Wrong It's Right podcast has had more than 7.4 million YouTube views – she confesses she hasn't told her fans everything she's had done.
'I have done things that I haven't explicitly talked about,' she reveals.
'But of course, I've had some help and I'm not ageing backwards.'
In fact, Olivia estimates that, at some point, she'll have splashed out six figures on transforming her appearance.
'I could easily hit the £100,000 mark if I get my teeth done again, or when I have to get my boobs redone,' she admits.
'The guidelines are that you have to get your boobs redone every 10 years, so I will have to get them changed at some point.

'But I want to wait until I have kids before I outlay that money again.'
There's another surgery she'd happily consider once she's had babies – a designer vagina.
'If I needed to do that, I would – 100 per cent,' Olivia says.
'We look at mummy makeovers in the new series and the thing I realised is, you never know how your body is going to react to pregnancy.
'Some women see very little changes to their body, while others suffer incontinence and all sorts of health issues.
'So if I felt like something made me unhappy or I had issues, then yeah, of course.'
While she hasn't planned when she and her footballer husband of two years, Bradley Dack, 31, will start a family, she admits they have fun practising in the bedroom – when they are actually under the same roof, that is.
'There are times when we struggle for time together, because he was in Sunderland for a whole year and often I'm away filming. So we can't do designated sex nights,' she laughs.
'For us, sex is more of an 'as and when' thing.
'But one of the positive things about spending time apart is that, when you are back together, it feels a lot more exciting.
'I think missing someone is a nice feeling and I still get butterflies when I see him at the airport.
'One way we really keep the spark alive is by texting.
'I always tell people: 'Remember to flirt with your partner.'
'So when I'm texting him, I flirt with him, rather than just asking him if he has walked the dog.'
Love Island gave me my big break and changed my life, so I'll always feel very nostalgic about it.
Recently, Olivia came under fire after she commented on her Love Island ex, Chris Hughes, and his new girlfriend, Celebrity Big Brother co-star JoJo Siwa.
After fans on TikTok asked for her take on the unlikely romance, Liv suggested Chris might have ulterior motives by commenting that JoJo is 'really famous'.
Quizzed about her reaction – which led to some of Chris and JoJo's fans slamming her – Liv sighs.
'Basically, when they went official, I got tagged in like 200 TikToks saying they were dying to know what I thought,' she explains.
'The people that follow me know how I say tongue-in-cheek things.
'I just gave them one little line in the spur of the moment.
'Sometimes these things land well and sometimes they don't.
'But the right side of the internet liked it.'
She smiles, cheekily, clearly wondering if she will land herself in trouble again.
Olivia Attwood's Career History
From Monster grid girl and Love Island star to daytime telly panellist and respected documentary maker, Olivia Attwood has made a huge career pivot in recent years...
Olivia first started as a Monster grid girl at motorsport events in 2012 when she was 19-years-old, and did it right up until she went into Love Island in 2017.
After placing third in the reality show with then-boyfriend Chris Hughes, she starred in their own spin-off series, Chris & Olivia: Crackin' On, in 2018.
Later that year, she appeared on Celebs Go Dating and then joined the cast of The Only Way Is Essex in 2019, where she had a number of fiery on-screen rows.
In 2020, the reality TV veteran began starring in her own reality series on ITVBe titled Olivia Meets Her Match, which followed her wedding preparations with footballer Bradley Dack.
In 2021, the tide started to turn.
Olivia made appearances on household shows Lorraine, Tipping Point: Lucky Stars and Loose Women.
Then, in 2022, ITV commissioned her for her first ever documentary series.
She presented Olivia Attwood: Getting Filthy Rich, which explored women selling sexual content online.
In June 2023, ITV commissioned Olivia Marries Her Match and made her a regular guest panellist on Loose Women.
Her most recent docu-series, Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection, aired in 2024 where she sensitively explored the cosmetic industry.
'The truth is, [their relationship] is not something I think about,' she says.
'I've got a lot going on.'
That's quite the understatement.

Olivia Attwood's The Price of Perfection returns on Thursday 12th June
As well as the new series of The Price of Perfection, she recently wrapped filming the next run of Olivia Attwood's Bad Boyfriends and is about to start shooting a fourth round of her other hit show, Getting Filthy Rich.
On top of that, she manages to squeeze in her podcast, a radio show with pal Pete Wicks and being a Loose Women panellist.
And despite the recent cuts to the ITV daytime favourite, Olivia confirms that her place on the panel is safe.
'I'm definitely staying on Loose,' she says. 'I literally adore that show and the women on it.
'But there are a lot of people who will be impacted [by the changes] behind the camera.'
With a new series of Love Island kicking off this week, Olivia says she will always be grateful to the show that launched her career back in 2017.
'Love Island gave me my big break and changed my life, so I'll always feel very nostalgic about it,' she insists.
And with rumours swirling that Maya Jama might trade in her keys to the villa after this upcoming series, might Olivia fancy slipping into her stilettos and hosting the nation's favourite dating show?
'I think Maya's fantastic for the show and I don't think she's going anywhere,' she says.
'But I'll be completely honest – I'd definitely be open to it if Maya didn't want to do it anymore. So, if the powers that be asked me to have that conversation, of course, I would be ALL ears.'

Parents warned of 'dangerous' Labubus in Wales after counterfeit versions of viral toy are found
Parents warned of 'dangerous' Labubus in Wales after counterfeit versions of viral toy are found Labubus are the latest trend to make waves on social media and some sell for hundreds of pounds online Shoppers are warned on fake Labubus (Image: HANDOUT ) Every era has that weird and wonderful trend that is sure to have left it's mark on childhoods; from Pogs and Trolls to Furbies and Tamagotchis. Now, this generation has its very own - and it's made waves across the world. Labubu is the latest craze to capture attention worldwide, particularly on TikTok. These collectible monster elves, created by designer Kasing Lung and sold by Pop Mart, have been flying off the shelves for ridiculous prices. But, with anything popular comes individuals hoping to exploit that demand. Now, a warning has been issued from Neath Port Talbot Council which recently seized suspected counterfeit Labubus after safety concerns were raised. The council's Trading Standards officers are currently investigating these counterfeit toys, which they say could pose serious risks to children; including exposure to harmful chemicals or choking hazards due to small parts. The toys, which were sized from an unnamed shop in the Neath Port Talbot area, are being examined for safety violations. Consumers are urged to be cautious when buying toys to ensure they meet safety standards. Inspired by Nordic fairy tales, these strange looking monsters are known for their pointed ears, serrated teeth and fluffy body. Article continues below Counterfeit Labubus were seized from a Neath Port Talbot shop (Image: NPT Council ) Although a very Marmite kind of purchase, these creatures have become a must-have item among influencers and collectors. Originally priced at £31.50 at Pop Mart, Labubus are now being resold for hundreds of pounds across different sites, with one seller asking for £2,556 on eBay. Stay informed on everything Neath Port Talbot by signing up to our newsletter here The toys come in mystery boxes and were initially popularised by former Love Island star, Olivia Attwood. Their viral success has made them a hot commodity, and demand has even led to fights breaking out in some stores up and down the UK. However, as the craze grows, so too does the market for fake Labubus - often called 'Lafufus.' These counterfeits are identified by their poor quality with exaggerated features, mangy fur and shoddy materials. In light of this, the Trading Standards Team is offering the following advice to consumers to ensure they stay 'shopper safe': Check goods and their packaging carefully. On toys there should be age warnings and safety symbols such as a CE or UKCA mark. Check for spelling mistakes or poor quality labelling; this usually gives the game away. Buy from reputable sellers, so you can return goods if a problem develops. Check the price. Be suspicious if it's a lot cheaper than you would expect. Cllr Cen Phillips, Neath Port Talbot Council's cabinet member for nature, tourism and wellbeing, emphasised the need for shoppers to stay vigilant, adding: "Due to the discovery of these suspected counterfeit toys we want to alert consumers and particularly parents to be extra vigilant. "If toys are found to be counterfeit they can potentially pose significant dangers to children, including the likes of exposure to certain chemicals and choking hazards due to small parts." Counterfeit toys often lack proper safety testing and the council encourages anyone concerned about the safety of toys to get in touch.

The Chase's Darragh Ennis says 'It cannot be replaced' as he opens up on show's strict rule
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Darragh Ennis, known as 'The Menace' on ITV show The Chase, has shared insights into a strict rule he must follow regarding his wardrobe on the show. In a recent episode of the Guestimators podcast, host Andy Bush informed listeners that the Irish entomologist was dressed down during his appearance. He contrasted Darragh's casual attire to the "lavish suits" he usually wears on The Chase, where he stars alongside fellow Chasers Mark Labbett, Jenny Ryan, Anne Hegerty, Shaun Wallace, and Paul Sinha. Darragh secured the role in 2020 after appearing on the show as a contestant, having previously admitted he signed up for the series when experiencing financial issues. The quizzer, who is also a neuroscientist at the University of Oxford, revealed that he wears "ridiculous" jackets on the show and has to return them immediately afterwards. (Image: Dave) Darragh explained: "I have very ridiculous suits. So, it's made out of velvet, and it was made very specifically for me. Well, the jacket was, so that's handmade, tailor-made, and it cannot be replaced because the material is no longer out. "So, there's two of them. I'm not allowed...I can't even drink anything in that, and as soon as we're done, I have to take it off and give it back to wardrobe." Andy asked if he only had one "precious" suit, to which Darragh responded that his work wardrobe consists of two jackets; otherwise, it's simply a shirt and black jeans, confirming "not a full suit." Darragh also mentioned that the wardrobe team on the show, hosted by Bradley Walsh, designed the jackets, while Academy Costumes, known for their work in TV and film, tailored the garments. In other news, Darragh recently took to social media to debunk the notion that sugar causes hyperactivity in children, stating it's "just not true". (Image:) Using an example, Darragh, author of 'The Body: 10 Things You Should Know', provided a straightforward reason for any "hyper" behaviour seen in kids at parties. He remarked: "Our bodies actually function by controlling the conditions that our cells are in extremely carefully. It's called homeostasis, and blood sugar is one of those things that is very tightly regulated, this time by the interactions of some hormones, including one you've probably heard of: insulin." Darragh pointed out that individuals who cannot regulate their blood sugar, such as diabetics, must be "very careful" to maintain their levels within a "narrow range". He added: "When children have big intakes of sugar, say, at a party, their bodies very, very quickly reduce the blood sugar to normal levels. It's the party environment and the excitement that sends them hyper, not the sugar." In summary, he declared that there had been "many controlled studies to prove" that sugar doesn't actually make kids hyperactive and encouraged people to "stop saying it."
