Danniella Westbrook enjoys a beach day in Portugal after admitting she hates ... trends now

Danniella Westbrook slipped into a plunging black swimsuit to enjoy a sunny beach day in Portugal on Thursday.

The former EastEnders star, 49, enjoyed a stroll alongside the ocean after jetting abroad for reconstruction surgery.

Danniella was in good spirits as she swept her blonde tresses into a sleek topknot while enjoying her relaxing beach break. 

Despite undergoing another procedure in Turkey in a bid to save her collapsing face, Danniella has since admitted she hates her new face.

Danniella had a thread lift, liposuction in her cheeks and lips, fat grafting on her chin and her jawline etched after her septum collapsed from excessive drug use in 2002. 

Taking to Instagram, the actress shared a photo of herself taken before the surgery and said she couldn't believe what had been done to her.

She wrote: 'Three months ago I looked like this and thought I looked awful. I'd give my world to look like this again...

'I can't believe what's been done to me with this surgery.'

Since her procedure, Danniella had been wearing thick bandages around her head and nose, but took them off earlier this month. 

The television personality has been shaken after a health scare saw her back in hospital, hours after landing in Portugal.

Taking to her Instagram Stories on Sunday, she penned: 'Only I could land back in Portugal after surgery only to end up in hospital.

'The pain I've experienced is unreal, most frightening few days. Need it like a hole in the head, literally.'

When Danniella first woke up after the lengthy procedure, she said she looked 'like she had done 10 rounds with Tyson Fury'.
