Charlotte Crosby has had her breast implants removed after a terrifying health scare.
The former Geordie Shore star had been suffering agonising pain in her breasts and had to have the operation this week.
Charlotte went under the knife after returning from a trip to Brazil with her boyfriend Josh Ritchie.
And it's said that the entire ordeal is being captured on camera for her MTV reality series The Charlotte Show, on which she'll reveal her new look.
A source told The Sun: "Charlotte has been in quite severe pain with her breasts, one in particular.
"She saw a specialist before Brazil and he diagnosed severe inflammation and capsular contracture - which is when the scar tissue around the implant inside the body gets tight and hard.

"This can cause chronic pain and hardness which was what Charlotte was experiencing. As a precaution she has also been referred for breast scans to ensure there is nothing else going on."
Charlotte had a boob job in 2017, saying she wanted to correct her symmastia, or 'uniboob', where the breasts merge across the breastbone.
She had implants put in at the same time, but is said to have later regretted it.
The insider added that Charlotte "bitterly regrets" having implants and that they've now been removed, with her doctor trying to fix her symmastia for the second time.
It's said Charlotte will have to spend time at home recovering from her operation.
In the last day, the star has shared snaps on her Instagram story of herself relaxing at home with Josh and her dogs.
