She looks great but different... she is 56 but looks 10 years younger. Guessing she has had some work done but would love to know what?? I have never wanted any work done because it always looks false but I would have what she’s had! She just looks like her but better and fresher .. whereas I just look like me but old and tired 🥴
Any ideas what she might have had done?

She does everything Grin she has written about it

IPL, fillers, Botox, the works

Henlie · 12/02/2020 19:59

Yes, was just going to say Botox and fillers....

OhWellThatsJustGreat · 12/02/2020 20:01

Check out her twitter, she details everything, even just her day to day life, its almost as brilliant as her books!!!

HollowTalk · 12/02/2020 20:03

She's had hair extensions, too.

Izzydawg · 12/02/2020 20:03

Oh didn’t realise she had written about it. That’s the first time I’ve seen anybody with Botox and thought that looks good. Normally there is a look that you can tell. But then I have read on here that good Botox is hard to detect ... so if there’s good Botox why on earth do people with lots of money like Simon cowell have the bad Botox where it’s so obvious 😳

She looks bloody great doesnt she!

I wouldnt have known shed had work done.

TheWordmeister · 12/02/2020 20:07

Ooh yes, she does look good and fresh - not weird like say, Jennifer Anniston or Amanda Holden.

Just shows - if you have it done well, it can be fantastic.

TheWordmeister · 12/02/2020 20:08

...I have good botox. All I get is people asking me what skincare I use.

homemadecommunistrussia · 12/02/2020 20:08

I like her, but I think she looks a bit too perfect.

dustibooks · 12/02/2020 20:09

Can talk the hind leg off a donkey though...

RandomMess · 12/02/2020 20:14

DH has said she looked plastic not knowing how old she is or that she had indeed had work done.

Izzydawg · 12/02/2020 20:42

Where do you have your botox @TheWordmeister? I mean where is it injected on your face and how did you find the clinic?

I think she looks great, she’s got gorgeous skin. Don’t think I’ve ever read she’s had Botox though. She has beauty column in an Irish newspaper I believe.

She’s hilarious on twitter.

TheWordmeister · 12/02/2020 20:50

Izzydawg - I have it done by my dentist. She takes absolutely ages marking up my face and looking at where I need it. I have had it done elsewhere and it was not nearly as good, plus it always bruised me under my eyes.

3 areas - which are my frown lines between my brows, my forehead and under my eyes. I have just had it done and the last time was July. She manages to do it subtly, yet it makes me look fresh and non-cross.

AmazingGreats · 12/02/2020 20:52

She looks fantastic. Normally I hate Botox as it makes people look like their face is frozen, but I think because she is a very animate person it works for her

AnneKipanki · 12/02/2020 21:06

There was an article in the Observer Magazine.
She says she has had "work " done .
She has hair extensions as well .

Callingyounique · 12/02/2020 21:09

She doesn’t have children. My teens have added a good 10 years to my face. I don’t think I’m even joking. I imagine it’s easier to eat and sleep well without all the other stuff.

Binterested · 12/02/2020 21:09

I saw a picture of her at the weekend and thought she looked different. Not quite the face I know. Didn’t know she’d had all sorts done but now it makes sense.

Love Marian though so will not be judgy Blush

AnneKipanki · 12/02/2020 21:16

She has had other stresses in her life .

itbemay1 · 12/02/2020 21:47

God she's gorgeous. Beautiful woman and seems so nice and normal. Her jaw line is awesome!

Redcrayons · 12/02/2020 22:47

Literally just opened twitter and read a reply to a tweet saying she has had Botox.

SplatPancake · 12/02/2020 23:46

Are you Sali Hughes? Grin

AnotherTroyforHertoBurn · 12/02/2020 23:52

IIRC she also doesn't drink.

JingleCatJingle · 12/02/2020 23:58

That is because she was an alcoholic.

I do respect people who are upfront about what work they have.
