Danniella Shows Off Her New Look After Major Surgery
Danniella Westbrook was enjoying a relaxed day in London. The actress came back from Dubai after getting a complete facelift, as well as neck and brow work. Some parts of her face were damaged from the years when she struggled with drug abuse.
The actress once revealed that her surgeon, Dr Parviz Sadigh, worked miracles for her. It’s because she couldnt get any help in the United Kingdom. She left the clinic in a wheelchair after the procedure was done. Westbrook also opened up about her difficult past. She first became addicted at fourteen after she rose to fame as Sam Mitchell on the BBC soap.
She spent a huge amount on cocaine over her lifetime. The actress used cocaine so heavily, even when carrying her son Kai. In those years, her nose and cheekbones got very damaged. Moreover, her septum also collapsed. Last summer, she underwent surgery to reconstruct her nose.
Why Danniella Left EastEnders After Her Last Return
Danniella appeared on the screen as Sam Mitchell in 2016. She had returned from Portugal with her son to attend Penny Mitchell’s funeral. However, soon she clashed with her family. Sam had caused a stir when she told Ronnie and Jack that she could not cope with motherhood.
Soon, she eventually left Walford alone. But she asked Jack to take care of her son because she believed he would have a steadier life there. The show left the door open for Sam. However, the producers brought back Kim Medcalf when the character returned later. Danniella had said that she still feels she has unfinished business with the role.
Also, she hopes that she can someday return with her new face and her recovery. Do you want to see Danniella on the BBC soap again? Let us know in the comments. For more EastEnders spoilers and updates, keep following Soap Opera Daily.
