Dad of Irish Big Brother star Hughie Maughan warns son against Kim Kardashian-inspired 'Brazilian butt lift' surgery

The dad of Big Brother star Hughie Maughan has warned his son against getting a "Brazilian butt lift".

The procedure has grown in popularity in recent years, with Kim Kardashian one of the celebs rumoured to have got the "bum enhancement".

And Dublin reality TV star Hughie is set to jet out to Spain this weekend to go through with the surgery.

However dad Hughie Snr said he had no idea why his son is so keen on the procedure.

Glenda Gilson says her baby's sleepless nights are wreaking havoc on her romantic life 

He told the Irish Sun: “Hughie doesn’t need any of this stuff done.

"I haven’t a clue why he’s doing it? If your body is in good condition, you should leave it alone.

"That’s what I think.”

The concerned dad also voiced his concern that the procedure could go horribly wrong.

Singer Una Healy says she wasn't 'out to bash' ex Ben Foden in newest singer Strangers 

He added: “A Brazilian bum lift sounds funny but this stuff is ­dangerous.

"You hear so many bad things going wrong with plastic surgery and you can’t correct it. If it goes wrong, it can leave you in a deep depression.”

Hughie rose to fame in 2016 as one of the stars of Big Brother UK, and came out as bisexual just before entering the house.

The TV star is understood to be going ahead with the surgery despite his father's concerns.

He told the Irish Sun:  “My dad shouldn’t worry, I’ve thoroughly researched this and I’m going with the best company offering these procedures.

"This is something I wanted to get done but I waited till now because I wanted to find the right people.

“They have done a lot of well-known reality stars and their results are incredible.”
