Danniella Westbrook plans more surgery before turning 50 after EastEnders snub

Danniella Westbrook has shared a series of glam selfies, after the fall out from her EastEnders snub.

The former soap star, 48, took to Instagram on Thursday to share some inspirational words alongside a snap of herself posing in a glam ensemble.

Danniella - who threatened BBC bosses with legal action after her EastEnders character was recast - posed and pouted for the camera in a blurry snap shared with her 79,4000 followers.

"Sometimes people come in and out your life for a few years, but inevitably one of you will evolve," the mum-of-two wrote within a lengthy caption.

"Then that season has gone , don’t be bitter, don’t talk bad of them , open your eyes & close your mouth take a moment to see that it’s nothing personal it’s just people are living."

The former Sam Mitchell actress then went on to open up about the future, after previously discussing her surgery plans ahead of her 50th birthday next year.

"This has been the hardest part of my journey this last six months but trust in the one thing I can tell you I’ve learned and that’s to trust the process," she told her Instagram followers on Thursday.

"Walk towards your next chapter in faith and just do you."

Danniella's motivational mantras come as the star plans to continue her surgery journey and rebuild her face before her landmark birthday.

After rising to fame at the age of 16 - thanks to her role on EastEnders - the former Celebrity Big Brother star has battled with addiction over the years.

Back in the 1990s, the one-time soap star spent an estimated £250,000 on cocaine, which cause her septum - the fragile cartilage that separates the nostrils - to collapse.

Over recent months, the actress has been having a series of cosmetic surgeries to repair the damage, and last month shared her plans for even more tweakments.

Sharing a throwback of her at the TV Quick and TV Choice awards in 2009 on Instagram last month, the star told her followers: "Can’t wait for all my surgery to be done... will be back too my best and fighting fit and next year I will be 50!

"Bring it on... I’m ready... More than ready, I’m ready for a full transformation physically.

She added: "I’ve spent a lot of time alone the last six months. I’ve been working on myself and my spiritual side has already begun evolving.

"I’ve cut the deadbeats and energy draining people out of my life. And I am ready to get busy living... And busy working. I have a feeling it’s all going to work out just fine ."

Over the weekend, Danniella hit out at the news the EastEnders have opted to hire Kim Medcalf to reprise the role of Sam Mitchell and threatened BBC bosses with legal action.

The fuming star also seemingly hinted her new autobiography may reveal some secrets about the long-running soap.

"Bet you all can’t wait for my new book now can ya ….. oh it’s gonna go way back to the things I’ve never ever told #beafraidpeople #itsallgood," the star tweeted to her 228,500 followers on Sunday.
