But, despite her fears about surgery, Tara Palmer-Tomkinson has undergone an operation to rebuild her drug-damaged nose.

Tara went into rehab in 1999 to kick a cocaine habit but the drug had eaten away the cartilage, leaving her with a dented bridge.

A now clean TPT recently told Now magazine: "I have to resort to surgery - I'm too weak to keep facing this criticism.

"Loads of people have said how ugly my nose is... I've been forced into doing something that's frightened me for the last six years."

She also revealed that she's never liked her nose and said: "Thank God for airbrushing - that's why I look good in magazines.

Talking about recent pressure, Tara added: "When I went to Elton John's White Tie And Tiara ball last month in a blacked out car, all I could hear were the photographers shouting: 'Get the nose! Get the nose!'"

We can't wait to see the results.
