Danniella – who ros to fame as fresh-faced Sam Mitchell on the BBC soap, has undergone countless cosmetic procedures over the years after her septum infamously collapsed due to her drug use.
The actress shared an image of her in a hospital bed and holding the hand of her new boyfriend Charlie Symonds, as she updated fans about the procedure.
“Big day for me heading down for a very long surgery right now to rebuild my face. Then I can get back to work and we can get on with our life together @chasarealtal. I love you x,” she wrote and Charlie reshared it saying he was “so proud” of her.
Danniella also shared Charlie’s post and thanked him for being beside her “every step of the way.”
“See you when I wake up,” she added.
Charlie, a boxer, shared a video to his Instagram stories to say “thank you to everyone for the support towards Danniella.”
“This is something that she wanted to do for herself, it’s been a long time coming,” he added.
“I love her for her, I met her for her.. She’s beautiful inside and out. This is something she wants to do for herself.”
Danniella has spent over £500,000 rebuilding her face and in 2023 travelled to Turkey for her fifth facial reconstruction surgery, undergoing a surgical thread lift.
The procedure involved them putting 1,200 threads into her face, and then liposuction to remove fat from her body and put it into her cheeks and lips to make her face more symmetrical.
She also had fat grafting on her chin and her jawline etched.
Following the surgery, Danniella opened up to The Sun that she regretted having it done.
She explained the operation “hasn’t worked” and they took “too much” fatty tissue from her stomach and she’s now “lost her six-pack”.
“I also have big lumps of fluid all over my belly. They’re like big tennis balls. It’s ruined my body,” she fumed at the time.
“I have never been in pain like it. I felt like I couldn’t breathe. I was hysterically crying every single day,” she admitted.
