'I got lip filler as surprise - now my husband and son can barely look at me'

A woman was shocked by her husband and eldest child's reaction when she decided to get filler in her lips - as they both could barely look at her.

She took to Mumsnet to explain her husband was 'furious' with her decision, and wanted to know whether what she'd done was wrong.

The upset mum wrote: "I went for my six monthly Botox treat today and decided to have a tiny bit of filler in my lips.

"They are currently swollen and look bigger than they will in a few days - but by no means a trout pout!

"Well, my husband and eldest child have gone absolutely mad at me. They can barely look at me! They are furious!

"I can't believe my appearance causes them so much anguish when they barely look at me in normal circumstances.

"Said I look like I'm off TOWIE trying to be 20 and ridiculous My husband is really really cross. I feel like I'm 15 again! I, by the way, love it!

"I've just turned 50 and have 4 kids. I just felt like looking after myself and trying something new. Am I being unreasonable?"

People were shocked at the husband's reaction, with many thinking his fury was a huge overreaction.

"Your face, your choice", one commented.

Another wrote: "It’s your face, you can do whatever the f*** you want."

"Sod ‘em! Your choice!", someone quipped.

Others didn't back the woman's choice, however, with one Mumsnetter writing: "To be honest I'd be pretty freaked out if my partner suddenly turned up having had something like that done without mentioning it."

"Absolutely rude of them to comment like that", one sympathised.

Do you think her husband overreacted? Let us know in the comments.
