Katie Price is reportedly considering having one of her ribs removed in order to create a smaller waist and allow her to imitate the image of a Barbie doll.
The 45-year-old mother-of-five has undergone various surgical procedures over the years in pursuit of her own particular brand of beauty. Fans have seen her breasts balloon in size, and be reduced, as she has undergone a reported 16 boob jobs.
While she has also had work done to her face with lip filler injections, nose jobs, and face lifts – and has also undergone liposuction and bum lift procedures. But now Katie is said to be planning one of her most dangerous procedures; the removal of a rib in order to cinch in her waistline.
A source told new magazine: “Katie trawls Russian plastic surgery sites to look at other women and for inspiration. That’s where she gets the idea of what she thinks is perfection. She’s always wanted a tiny waist that nips in perfectly to give her curves. She’s considering lower rib removal to get this desired look.”

The whole Barbie doll look is a trend she wants to be a part of… she basically wants to look like a plastic doll. I think she’ll do whatever it takes and at any cost.”

The publication also consulted a Harley Street doctor, who expressed concerns about Katie’s rib removal plans – warning no doctor in the UK would perform such a high risk surgery. The medical expert highlighted that the lower rib is connected to the spine and is specifically designed to protect internal organs. He warns performing a surgery to remove that bone could lead to a risk of internal organs – like the lungs – becoming punctured by such a procedure. The Mirror has contacted a representative of Katie for comment.
Katie has been very open about the cosmetic surgeries she has undergone in the past – having travelled as far afield as Belgium and Turkey to get work done. She recently had rhinoplasty surgery to reshape her nose, but she confessed to her fans online that she was not happy with the final result.
She told followers via TikTok last month: “I look a bit weird but I don’t care. I will present myself – whatever I look like – to you guys.” The model also explained that the new surgery had an unexpected side effect – in that her phone’s facial recognition software no longer recognised her. She huffed: “I have to keep putting the pin [code] in. I don’t think my nose looks any different – which means it’s a good nose job – but it doesn’t recognise my face and it’s really p**sing me off.”
