Danniella Westbrook is due to have her "final" reconstructive surgery in the "upcoming weeks," with her set to head abroad for the procedure.
The actor, 49 - known for having played Sam Mitchell on BBC soap opera EastEnders - is said to have undergone facial surgeries in the past in a bid to treat the effects of osteoporosis and previous cocaine addiction.
We understand that she is now preparing to have her "final reconstruction surgery" in the coming weeks and is set to head out to Turkey for the procedure.
Danniella's rep told us this morning: "Danniella is yet to have her final reconstructive surgery. This will take place in Turkey in the upcoming weeks."

And last week, she tweeted: "I've just had surgery". She however didn't specify what it was, though it had been in response to a comment about her nose.
There has since been speculation that she had headed out to Turkey for her 'final round' of facial surgery - said to be her fifth procedure - at some point this week.
Her rep however told us that she isn't out in Turkey at the moment, but that she will be "in the upcoming weeks".
