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’.

The Mirror mentions also the infamous episode from back in 2008 when ‘comedian’ Frankie Boyle probably thought he was funny on BBC2’s Mock The Week saying “She looks like someone who’s looking at themselves in the back of a spoon.”
