Speaking to Vanessa, she said: “The next thing they’re doing is like a hair lip reversal because my lip is now so high up where it’s pulling like that.
“So I have to do it from the inside, cut a flap from the inside of my cheek, turn it round and then bring it in from there and attach it because I don’t want a scar on the outside of my face.
“There are 18 more months post-surgery. I have surgery about every two and a half, three months.”

“The bone would not close around the screw so they took me out of the house to the dentist three times, which was not for them, because the pain was so bad.”
