This will make you angry

NHS Boob job recipient Josie Cunningham has revealed she aborted her unborn baby at 12 weeks in order to proceed with a nose job.

In an interview with Sunday People, Cunningham said “I’m having this nose job no matter what gets in my way.

“Pregnancy was a major obstacle and an abortion was the answer to it – so that’s what I did.

“Anyone who criticises me for putting my looks ahead of an unborn child has no right until they’re the ones putting food on the table for my kids.

“I don’t care what anyone thinks. My body, my decision.”

Cunningham has caused outrage in the past by bragging about receiving a boob job and botox on the NHS. She also caused controversy by claiming she received benefits and up to £6,000 worth of taxis a year.

Cunningham aspires to work in the adult film industry and claims that she will pursue more glamour work post-nose job.

She said: “I had already booked a consultation at a cosmetic surgery company before I found out I was pregnant.

“I’d had the boobs done, I had the body. But I realised that to be really successful in the adult industry I needed the face too.

“I was excited about getting the nose I’ve always wanted. Mine is too wide and too round at the end.

“When I found I was pregnant I told the dad and he was really happy.

“But I was already thinking about the effect having another baby would have on my plans. I want to do glamour and some more adult work, like porn films .

Cunningham claims the pregnancy was accidental.

She said: “It’s not like I planned this. I was seeing someone I liked and got a bit brutal in the bedroom. We did use a condom but it split.

“I was meant to take the morning after pill but I had a photoshoot the following morning and didn’t get a chance to run into a pharmacy.

“I thought I was safe and sometimes you have to put your career first.”

She said: “People can hate me – but the pregnancy was ­going to ruin my chance of finally making it. I’d been planning and saving for this surgery and nothing was going to get in my way.

“I’m not stupid enough to think I’m model material right now – but with a nose job I can have the ­career I dream of.

“Of course it’s bad timing and I am sad. But I’d have been more sad if I couldn’t carry out my plans. Next year I’ll be posing for glamour shots instead of nine months pregnant lying on the sofa with fat ankles.

“That’s my decision and no one else’s.”
