Real Housewives of Cheshire star Tanya Bardsley has unveiled a stunning new look following a recent cosmetic procedure, leaving fans in awe of her transformation. The 43 year old opened up on what she done with her face after her shock surgery and perimenopause hell.

In an exclusive chat, Tanya opened up that she recently went under the knife for a half-mid facelift and was shocked by what the medics found.

“They were scraping out 20-year-old filler. Afterwards, the surgeon said I couldn’t use anything on my skin apart from water and Bio-Oil, and honestly, my skin was amazing! Then I stupidly introduced all the retinols and things I used to use, and now my skin is awful. I need to go back to basics again.”

“That’s what I mean about relearning my body. So many things change as a woman, I think it’s important to notice them.”

Despite her glamorous on-screen persona, Tanya embraces a more relaxed style at home, especially while managing her lively household of three boys. She humorously remarked, ahead of the first episode of their ITVBe fly on the wall reality show – The Bardlsey Bunch, “People will see us all in our scruffs.”

“Also, my kids are always in their underpants, so I spent most of the time trying to get some more clothes on them all!”

Just over two years later, Tanya is the healthiest she’s ever been, having sought help privately and spending 12 months off the booze. While she now enjoys the occasional glass of wine or a cocktail, it’s not a “must” for her, and she can take it or leave it.

“I had no idea about the relationship between perimenopause and ADHD, and it turned my ADHD up 10-fold,” she says. “That’s partly why I’ve been so open about my own experience. I’ve seen the very dark places it can take you to, and I know that one in four women with ADHD who attempt suicide will succeed. I’ve been there, and didn’t succeed, and we shouldn’t have to get to that point.

“For me, a year off alcohol made such a difference. I would recommend it to any woman with ADHD who thinks they’re hitting menopause, because it changes so much. It’s like I’ve had to relearn my body all over again.”

In 2023, Tanya revealed the incredible results of a non-surgical skin treatment that claims to remodel and contour the face. She opened up about her striking new look, exclusively telling us how “middle-aged bloat” brought on by a combination of the perimenopause and ageing had shattered her self-confidence.

“I have to tell people about this because it’s made me feel much more confident, attractive, vibrant and glowing,” she reveals. “I look five years younger and feel much more toned and chiselled.”
