Olympic heroine Rebecca Adlington has had a nose job following years of taunts.
The retired swimmer, 25, underwent cosmetic surgery weeks ago at a top Harley Street clinic to have her nose reduced in size and a bump removed.
And she showed off the dramatic results as she enjoyed a day out with a friend.
Rebecca, who scooped two bronze medals at London 2012 and two golds at Beijing’s 2008 Olympics, has previously spoken about hating her looks.
Last year she broke down in tears over her appearance on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! alongside beauty queen Amy Willerton, 21.
In a revealing interview, Becky said: “Every day I look in the mirror and go, ‘God, I’m not pretty. I’ve got a very big nose’.

A series of intersecting and stressful events formed the backdrop to the final hours of an already vulnerable and depressed Charlotte Dawson, who killed herself in her luxury waterside apartment at Woolloomooloo.
The 47-year-old television personality was coping with her two-bedroom apartment on the Finger Wharf going up for auction on Saturday, she felt she was not getting enough promotion for the Logie award votes for her former role as judge on the Foxtel reality TV series Australia’s Next Top Model, and she had recently been setting up a homewares range.
On top of that, friends say she was struggling after the 60 Minutes tell-all interview with her former husband Scott Miller, whom she had confessed she still loved and would be the only man she would ever marry.
In her last interview just a week ago with Fairfax Media journalist Jo Casamento, Dawson had said she was unsure if she was strong enough to watch the interview that cavassed their failed marriage, his battle with the drug ice, criminal convictions for drug offences, stolen goods and prohibited weapons as well as accusations he was a pimp and a drug dealer.
“I continue to fight my depression – it’s a bitch of a thing – and I fear watching something like this as it’s the most painful time in my life,” she said.

The cat had got stuck under the HSC Gotlandia II, which operates in Visby on the island of Gotland, and the crew were spurred into action after hearing strange noises coming from the vessel.
“We heard the cat meowing when we were getting on to work, it had probably fallen into the water and was trying to crawl up. He sat there and was distressed,” crew member Stellan Stenberg told Aftonbladet.
Colleague Johan Skärkarl donned his wetsuit and jumped into the water to retrieve the animal, before swimming to the shore with the cat nestled on top of his stomach.
Brave guy – I once tried rescuing a cat from a dog, and got a full face of scars to prove it ! :-)
