Former EastEnders actress Danniella Westbrook has been showered with compliments after unveiling the results of her latest surgery in a glamorous new Instagram post.
The 52-year-old star looked confident and radiant as she posed in an all-black ensemble, complete with glowy makeup and swept-back blonde hair in a half-up, half-down style.
Her makeup look featured a smokey eye, nude lip and sculpted contouring as she stood smiling beside a white wall.

Sharing the snap with her followers, Danniella wrote: “One day at a time, trusting the process and knowing I have the knowledge and the drive to make it work… #shesonherway.”
Fans quickly flooded the comments section with supportive messages, calling her “beautiful” and praising her strength.
“She’s back!” One follower wrote.
“Looking good, lady,” another added, while a third commented: “You look fantastic, Danniella.”
“You look beautiful!” A fan gushed.
‘Very long’ operation
The post marks a positive update for the former soap star. Danniella spent time in hospital earlier this year undergoing major facial reconstruction surgery.
Back in June, the actress revealed she was preparing for what she called a “very long” operation aimed at repairing damage caused by years of cocaine addiction.
Sharing a photo from her hospital bed, she told fans: “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.”
Her boyfriend, Charlie Symonds, was pictured holding her hand in the photo. Danniella thanked him for being by her side “every step of the way”.
Danniella’s surgeries
The operation involved surgeons removing cartilage from her rib to rebuild her nose.
In September, Danniella shared the results of the reconstructive surgery with fans in a selfie posted to Instagram.
The actress rose to fame in the 1990s playing Sam Mitchell on EastEnders. She has been open about her long battle with addiction, which began when she was just 14.
Danniella previously admitted to spending more than £250,000 on cocaine and taking up to five grams a day at the height of her drug use, even while pregnant with her son, Kai.
Her addiction led to the collapse of her septum and years of painful reconstructive procedures. Despite multiple relapses, Danniella has been vocal about her determination to stay clean and rebuild her life.
