Millie Mackintosh has revealed she is '100 per cent glad' she went under the knife for a boob job two years ago - but sometimes wishes she got bigger implants.
The former Made In Chelsea star, 35, had a breast augmentation in order to restore the way her breasts looked when she was in her 20s.
Speaking in an Instagram video, Millie said her implants feel completely natural and she often forgets they're there at all.
'I think there is so much judgement out there and people feel like they can't talk about it. For me, what I wanted to create was what I had before kids,' she said.
'I didn't want to create something that was really unnatural on my frame. I think it's such a personal decision but I had a folder of boobs in my phone.

'I would just be obsessed with boobs. Looking at other people's boobs thinking, would that look good on me? I wanted small, pert round boobs like I used to have in my 20s when I was on the pill.
'After I had kids they grew so much when I was breatfeeding but I waited a year to see if they would come back to life and they didn't.'
Millie went for one of the smallest implant sizes you can get, but admitted she sometimes wishes she had opted for something bigger.
'I wanted to do it for myself, it wasn't anything I felt pressured to do by anyone else. My surgeon is called Paul Harris, he is honestly an artist,' she said.
'I actually ended up going smaller than what my surgeon recommended because I was too scared of them looking unnatural.
'He recommended going for 200cc's or 220cc's and I ended up going for 175 which are pretty much the smallest implants they make. If I had any regrets, sometimes I wish they were bigger - I think they are the right size for my frame.'
Recalling the recovery period, she added: 'It was like two weeks I would say of real discomfort.
'You have to be careful not to do any upper body exercise for a while because you do not want a burst implant. For me, 100pc glad I did it, no regrets.'

Writing in the caption, Millie expanded on how her confidence was knocked while she was breastfeeding.
'When I was breastfeeding both my daughters, they grew so much and then just looked like deflated baloons with loose skin,' she wrote.
'I waited a year to see if things would bounce back naturally, but they didn’t, and it really affected my confidence.
'I feel so much happier and more confident in my body now. If you’ve got any questions, drop them in the comments – I’m always happy to be open and chat about my journey. ❤️'
