Katie Price is barely recognisable from the fresh-faced teen who started glamour modelling at the age of just 18.
With her naturally curly hair, larger nose and gappy grin, Katie was the Brighton-born schoolgirl raring to make a name for herself as wild alter-ego Jordan.
And, two decades on, the now-40-year-old mum of five has sculpted, nipped, tucked and inflated her way to notoriety, shedding husbands, lovers and cash along the way.
Katie’s boob jobs now number in the double-digits.
Somewhat coincidentally, her disastrous hook-ups with men virtually correspond with her operations – suggesting she uses plastic surgery as a kind of emotional crutch for her rocky love life .

When boob jobs go wrong
Her first boob job was at the age of 20 when she was breaking into Page 3 modelling as a 32B cup size in 1998, followed just a year later with another op to take her from a 32C to a 32D.
She pumped up her chest to an eye-popping 32F 12 months after that when she split from Dane Bowers – who she later branded "the love of my life" .
Katie’s boobs then went seven years without being subjected to the surgeon’s knife, before travelling to the US in 2007 to lift her breasts to a 32G and get a nose job while she was married to Peter Andre.
In 2008 she underwent her first boob reduction surgery to take them down to a more manageable 32C – the size of her first boob job.
Four years on and Katie was going through another rough patch following the breakdown of her marriages to both Pete and Alex Reid.
She blew £10,000 on a total body makeover in 2012, inflating her boobs once again to a 32F and splashing out on other surgeries.
After tying the knot with third husband Kieran Hayler in January 2013, just weeks after meeting him, a more settled Katie decided to drop back down to her natural 32B boobs.
In 2016 she underwent 11 procedures on her breasts in one 12-month period alone. The first one came shortly after Katie gave birth to Jett, having found out while she was pregnant that Kieran had been cheating on her with her ex-best friend Jane Pountney.
"I’m having surgery because I want my boobs to look good for this polo event," she revealed in 2016.
"I haven’t actually had them done that many times but this past year, 11 times."
She admitted: "The day of the surgery I just get really nervous, they put so many needles in me that’s the only thing I hate. Then once it’s in you get that nice little cocktail."
But the Pricey insisted she’s not hooked on constantly changing her bra size, adding: "I can tell you now that I am not addicted to surgery , I’ve only had my boobs, lip, nose and teeth. But then I have Botox and fillers. It’s not anything major is it?"
But it wasn’t long before Katie set the caged Jordan free, getting yet another impulsive boob job in 2017 to go to a 32GG – her biggest cup size yet.
"I was all healed and ready for the final procedure on my boobs. The surgeon said: ‘What size do you want? Same implants, a little bigger or bigger?’" she told the Mirror in 2017.
"And me being impulsive, I just went: ‘Go bigger then!’ Maybe it’s the Gemini in me. But my body is used to it."
She went on: "I got used to having smaller boobs and all my clothes were size 10 or 12. Now I’m a 16 again. I don’t wear a bra because they’re so pert.
"I don’t have them out, they’re just for me. Kieran is not into boobs at all, and my mum’s always telling me off for everything and I’m like, ‘Shut up Mum, you want your face done’."
But the constant stress on her chest has taken its toll, and Katie was rushed into emergency corrective surgery in February 2015 when her breast implant exploded on New Year’s Day , leaving a hole in her boob.
She was forced to complete her Celebrity Big Brother stint with a gaping leaky wound in her chest, despite CBB bosses begging her to seek help.
"I was in such a bad way they wanted to pull me from the show," she said after winning the series.
"I said ‘no, you have to make it possible for me to finish’. And it’s lucky I did because I won."
Katie was seen clutching her boob during the final and later revealed it had been leaking everywhere.
