Bachelor Nation Stars Who Have Talked About Plastic Surgery: Rachel Recchia, Kaitlyn Bristowe and More

Rachel Recchia

The Bachelorette season 19 colead underwent breast reduction surgery in March 2023 and took her online fans along for the journey.

Before her operation, the pilot asked fans via TikTok about their breast reduction experiences as she was highly debating getting the procedure done herself.

“I have been in the process of going through my insurance and [to get] the surgery done since I was 17 and I think I am about to get it done at the beginning of next month,” she said in the February 7, 2023, TikTok video.

“Not only [life changing] in the way that I’m able to exercise and not have pain, but every woman I’ve ever met who’s gotten the surgery has said it’s absolutely changed their life.”

One month later, Rachel uploaded a mini vlog of her pre- and post-operation experience, while thanking her roommate and Bachelor alum Genevieve Parisi for taking care of her after surgery.

Blake Horstmann

Sharing a photo of himself enjoying “a little self-care Friday,” Blake posted videos to Instagram Stories showing his botox treatment courtesy of the Colorado Center for Aesthetics & Rejuvenation. “Out here getting my botox,” Blake wrote across one of the videos, before adding in another video that he was having “Xeomin” injected “for a nice soft look. Great for guys.”

Victoria Paul

Victoria Paul from the 2021 season of Bachelor in Paradise, and who originally appeared on The Bachelor season 24 competing for Peter Weber’s heart, had one of her breast implants rupture upon returning home from filming BiP. She gave Instagram Stories updates from the hospital before going into surgery, saying that she noticed how one of her breasts suddenly became much smaller than the other. Victoria noted that she originally got her implants at the age of 18 and she’s now nearly 29, so it was about the right time to have them replaced.

Demi Burnett

Demi Burnett said the “only work” she’s had done is “Botox in [her] forehead” after fans said she looked unrecognizable in an Instagram bikini photo from August 2021.

Kelley Flanagan

The Bachelor Season 24 contestant announced to fans in a series of August 2021 Instagram Stories that she was on her way to the doctor to get Restalyne injected into her chin to “balance out my face a little bit more.” She said it was something she’d looked into for the last several years and was “super excited” to see the results. Peter Weber’s former love promised to show fans an “after” video of her new profile, where she hoped her chin would be more in line with her nose and mouth.

Victoria Larson

The Bachelor in Paradise contestant clapped back after fans accused her of “getting a new face.”
“To everyone hating on my new look, hit them with a plot twist anytime you want, sis!” she said via TikTok on July 2021. “It’s your life and shout-out to my Botox girl! And I looked good both ways, don’t get it twisted.”

Clare Crawley

In July 2021, the season 16 leading lady revealed she will remove her breast implants after an explained illness left her with hives all over her body. She noted that her doctor found “huge pocket of fluid” behind one of her implants during the emotional Instagram video. “My body is fighting them, and recognizes them as something foreign in my body,” she told fans through tears.

Cassie Randolph

“Yes, I have gotten lip filler before, but I try to keep it as natural as possible … I have gotten a little Botox in my forehead,” the California native from Colton Underwood’s season said during an Instagram Q&A in 2019. “I’ve had people ask me if I’ve gotten jaw reshaping, cheek implants, chin something, nose, eyebrow lift — I don’t know. The answer is no. I have not gotten any of those things.”

Spilling All the Tea

In May 2021, Cassie opened up more about procedures she’s had done during a YouTube video where people sent in assumptions about her.

“I haven’t gotten anything done in a really long time. I get lip filler. I get Botox — I’ve gotten it in my forehead before; I’ve gotten it in my crow’s feet before, but that goes away really fast. I’ve also gotten it in my jaw,” the California native said. “I’ve also tried cheek fillers before. I haven’t gotten them in a long time because I naturally have really defined cheekbones.”

The reality babe noted she got injections in her jaw because she “really struggled” with stress during graduate school and would clench her jaw while she slept. However, she decided a mouth guard would be a better long-term solution.

Amanda Stanton

The BIP star said she was “confident” in the decision.
“Amanda didn’t want anything overwhelming or to go big,” the reality babe’s plastic surgeon, Dr. T.Y. Steven Ip told Us Weekly about her procedure at the time. “She actually wanted the exact opposite — something on the smaller side and more natural-looking. She wanted implants that were proportionate to her body.”

Hannah Ann Sluss

“I had never had any work done before, and I was really nervous because this is plastic surgery, and I wanted it to look as natural as possible,” the contestant from Peter Weber’s season said about her surgery with Dr. Breazeale, which she had in 2015. “I also didn’t want everyone to really recognize that I had had surgery. I wanted it to just be a gradual transition into looking more like a woman.”

Victoria Fuller

Victoria Fuller‘s original ABC bio alluded to her having a breast augmentation and allegedly said she had “revenge boobs” but was later deleted, according to screenshots from Reality Steve.

While the former contestant from Peter’s season hasn’t spoken directly about getting a boob job, she has shown her journey through undergoing Lasik surgery, laser tattoo removal and Morpheus 8, a micro-needling procedure that utilizes radiofrequency energy to remodel and contour the face.

Lauren Bushnell

“In terms of injectables, I was too scared to do anything before the wedding that I didn’t like or made my face frozen. I’ll do Botox occasionally, but I didn’t do it at all around the wedding,” the former contestant from Ben Higgins’ season told Glamour about her wedding prep before marrying country singer Chris Lane in October 2019. “I really wanted to like look back on photos and be like, ‘Yeah, that looks like us.’ I didn’t want to regret anything.”

Hannah Godwin

“Yeah, I’ve had my lips done before, big whoop,” the Alabama native explained on her YouTube channel. “It’s not a giant, huge secret. I’m obviously going to share the truth with you guys about everything. So, yes, I’ve had my lips done a few times.”

Vienna Girardi

The contestant from Jake Pavelka’s season said she isn’t “ashamed” about being her “best self.” The starlet got a nose job in 2011 and received liposuction in approximately 10 areas after gaining weight while battling depression following a miscarriage in 2017.
“He did such an amazing job,” the reality star told Us Weekly about her surgeon, Dr. Franklin Rose. “It did take about eight weeks for the swelling to go down, [but] now I’m skinny again!”

Jillian Harris

The season 5 leading lady said her rhinoplasty was a result of online bullying. “Some people are mean. I’ve found the best way to cope with this is to just feel sorry for them. How many emotionally wonderful people will jump onto the old world wide web and lash out at someone they have never met? Not many,” she wrote in a 2015 blog post. “So if someone says your [sic] fat, have a hot dog nose (yes this happened, and yes I got a nose job because of it) choose the route of empathy instead of anger.” 

Raven Gates

Before appearing on Nick Viall’s season, Raven got a breast augmentation in 2012. She confirmed her boob job was “five years ago” after a fan asked via Twitter in May 2017. “And I’m proud of it,” she added. 

Danielle Maltby

“I don’t know what to do with these yet,” the contestant joked on season 4 of Bachelor in Paradise about her new, bigger boobs.

Alexis Waters

Our favorite dolphin shark is darn proud of her enhanced breasts. She sang “happy boob day” with Bachelor Nick on season 21 to celebrate the anniversary of her surgery.

Kaitlyn Bristowe

When season 11 of The Bachelorette reaired as part of The Bachelor: Greatest Seasons Ever, Kaitlyn shut down any hate before her younger-self hit our TV screens.
“Please don’t rip me apart for lookin different. I’ve aged [five] years, changed my teeth, have had Botox and dyed my hair blonde. Of freakin course I look different,” she starlet wrote on Instagram.

Corinne Olympios

In March 2019, the contestant from Nick’s season opened up about getting a chin contouring procedure.

“I told u guys I’d always be honest with [you]! The side profile on the left was something that always irked me and I hated it. But I did something for my own self to fix it and make me feel more confident. No one should ever feel ashamed to do what makes [you] feel good, I mean gosh, YOLO! Do you, everyone,” she wrote on Instagram at the time.

Ashley Iaconetti

The Bachelor in Paradise alum laid everything out on the table during a 2017 podcast. “These are the things I do get done, I’m going to put it all out there because we’re embracing that it makes us feel the best about ourselves,” the starlet said at the time.

Ashley said she’s been getting Botox in her forehead every three months since she was 26 and receives lip injections every six months.
