After falling out with Lauren, Heidi ran off and allegedly eloped with Spencer – though this has yet to be confirmed.
She also began to modify her looks as she switched up her hair to her now-staple platinum blonde.
At the time, her lips also seemed plumper and she was protecting her skin from the sun by leaving behind the tan.

NEW HEIDI
2010
In 2010, Heidi shocked fans when she underwent ten surgeries in just one day, completely transforming her look.
The reality TV star revealed she got Botox, a brow lift, fillers, fat transfer, liposuction, a nose job, a boob job, a chin reduction, butt augmentation, and she had her ears pinned back.
Despite her being slammed by many for looking so different, she told PEOPLE at the time: “I think I look way better and I’m way happier.
“Nobody ages perfectly, so I plan to keep using surgery to make me as perfect as I can be.”

REGRETS
2013
Three years after her surgeries, Heidi admitted that she sometimes regretted having so many things done at once.
However, she flaunted off her curves in see-through dresses and plunging necklines.
It was also around this time that it was claimed her undergoing so many surgeries destroyed her and Spencer’s careers.

HOT MAMA

‘I HATE IT’
2019
At this time, Heidi opened up about regretting her surgeries once more and even admitted that she almost didn’t make it alive.
She admitted to Cosmopolitan that the only reason she did the ten surgeries was that she felt pressured and was the constant target of online bullying.
“I was also on TV where every perceived flaw is amplified,” she said.
“I think I looked in the mirror a little too much. I wish I had waited and not made a decision so young because I have long-term health complications.”
She urged her fans to consider the pros and cons of plastic surgery and to be careful with what they wish for as it seemingly backfired for it.
