At the height of her fame in 2009, Chanelle weighed 8.5 stone, barely ate and took laxatives to try and achieve a ‘WAG body’.
Fast-forward to 2020 and the reality star had a secret gastric sleeve operation after she reached 17 stone.
Chanelle lost 10 stone and dropped from a size 18 down to an 8. The star bravely showed her scars from the operation on her trips abroad.
She revealed the operation was a ‘last resort’ and decided on surgery after years of being unhappy, opting to have the operation at Burcot Hall Hospital in Worcestershire.
Last year she took to social media to share some before and after photos of her weight loss, adding that her operation had ‘changed her life’ and she had ‘no regrets’.
Chanelle announced her engagement to Dan Bingham in May 2022 and the pair married in an intimate ceremony in June.
The former BB housemate was reportedly ‘over the moon’ and said ‘yes straight away’ with a source telling OK! magazine: ‘She’s been dreaming of this for such a long time.
‘Chanelle has really been through it when it comes to relationships and this time it really feels like she’s found The One.’
