Charlotte Crosby opened up about the real reason she got her lip fillers dissolved after her pregnancy.
The Geordie Shore star, 31, became a mum for the first time in October after announcing her pregnancy to fans in mid-April.
Not long after she welcomed her baby girl, Alba Jean Ankers, she made the decision to dissolve her lip fillers after years of having them.
She insisted the decision to dissolve them wasn't due to trolls.
"I did not get my lips dissolved because of trolls because, quite frankly, I've been trolled for so long about them and I did not care," Charlotte revealed on her podcast Always On.

"I absolutely love my lips, but it got to the point, after pregnancy, they had swelled a lot."

"I watched a Geordie Shore reunion and I was watching it and I was like, 'I look ridiculous'. For the first time I thought, 'I look ridiculous'."
"And obviously I've had a little girl now, you know what I mean? I thought to myself when I was watching myself on TV and when I'm up in my little girl's face going [baby babble] and I'm doing all them silly noises... Can she even see us over them humungous lips?"
She wondered whether her daughter could see who she is as a person and added that she's been getting her lips done for eight years.

She joked it would take a while to 'get used to her new look' (Instagram)A few days before Christmas, Charlotte took to Instagram to share the results of getting the fillers dissolved.
She said something 'changed inside her' as she filmed herself at the beautician getting her pout deflated.
Revealing her new look on her YouTube channel in which her lips looked painfully swollen, she said: "They are horrendously bruised. They are so bruised. I don't know when this bruising is going to go down.
"The bruising is bad but I bruise quite bad anyway. You want to see when I got my bloods taken at the hospital. My arms were in bits!"
She later showed what she looked like after the swelling went down and joked she had to 'get used' to what she looked like.
