ANTM Winner Adrianne Curry Breast Implant Selection Details

America’s Next Top Model winner Adrianne Curry opens up about how a breast implant quote almost changed her perception – and her life.

“Five years post breast implant, and I’ve had a complete metamorphosis,” Curry, 42, wrote via X on Monday, January 6. “The first year, I cried non-stop. Lost over 90% of my natural breasts to necrosis and refuse to have a fat transfer. I was no longer willing to risk my health for vanity. I had a crash course in being humble and lying bare.”

A “breast implant extraction,” also known as a “breast implant removal” or “excision,” is a surgical procedure in which a doctor removes previously placed silicone or saline breast implants, according to the Cleveland Clinic. While some people have surgery to remove implants due to tissue hardening around the implant or other complications, others may have surgery to replace old implants with new ones.

Curry detailed her own grueling surgery and post-op process on Monday, sharing that her husband, Matthew Rhodehad to “cut out all my stitches because of living far away and the weather.”

“I was brought to my knees in humility and came through the fire of my vanity dying,” he continued. “It took a solid 2 years for them to settle down and look human. My husband was my rock….and I can’t believe how painless he was from my canteens.”

Five years later, Curry — who won the first ring of America’s Next Top Model back in 2003 – was “happy and healthy,” and wouldn’t “wish plastic surgery” on her “worst enemy.”

“It did nothing to alleviate my body dysmorphia and only gave me years of suffering,” she explained, adding, “Be okay with who and what you are. In my case, with much LESS than what I was.”

Following her poignant post, people flocked to the comments section to praise Curry for being so honest about her experience with plastic surgery. When one fan thanked the model for “sharing what I can’t imagine are easy things to share,” Curry replied, “If I can stop anyone from mutilating their healthy bodies with this….then it wasn’t is a wasted lesson. “

A second person revealed that they sent Curry’s mail to their daughter who was considering getting implants herself. “Dear god, I hope she doesn’t mutilate her body,” Curry responded.

Elsewhere in the comments section, Curry acknowledged that she holds herself “100 percent responsible” for her breast implants and for making what she now sees as “an uneducated, life-changing decision .”

The former reality star also explained that she didn’t get the patch because of cancer or illness, but because of “stupidity, vanity and body dysmorphia” noting that she initially got the implants because half of her chest was “conclave,” but they did. t “repair.”

Curry rose to fame on season one ANTM in 2003, where she was awarded a modeling contract, brand deals and more. After nine years in the fashion industry – and a stint on a VH1 reality show My Fair Brady with the first husband Christopher Knight – walked away from the industry. She and Rhode went on to tie the knot in 2018.

Last month, Curry took to social media to reveal that she and Rhode have been living “VERY far apart” for the past seven years. “I can go months without hanging out (with) anyone other than my husband,” she shared via X at the time. “My life is lived in the thundering, glorious silence of the desert.”

He added, “I get overwhelmed easily in big groups/cities now. It can take days to decompress from the experience.”

“I’m more tuned into the earth than I’ve ever been in my life,” he explained. “My awareness of the forest and what is in it around me is quite sharp.”

Several hours later, Curry shared another image of his Montana paradise via Instagram, captioning the shot, “There’s nowhere you can be, that’s not where. You are meant to be. It’s easy. All you need is love.”
