Stephanie Davis burst into laughter after seeing a photo of herself immediately after surgery that was shared on social media by her boyfriend Joe Mckalroy.
The former Hollyoaks star "treated herself" for her birthday this year as she flew to Istanbul to go under the knife to get new boobs and teeth. Now at home recovering, the 29-year-old has been sent a snap Joe shared while she was still under anaesthetic following the surgery.
Posting to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, she said: "Someone has just sent me this... that Joe posted. He wanted to show me it but he didn't save it. This is what he did to me when I was still under anaesthetic."

The next slide showed a photo of Stephanie lying in bed, in a hospital gown. A cigarette had been placed in her mouth, with huge sunglasses over her eyes. She captioned the photo: "I am dead [cry-laughing emojis". Stephanie added: "That has killed me. Oh, what a boyfriend."
Joe has previously been referred to by the star as her "soulmate". During her time in Istanbul she said Joe was "with her all the way" and "held her hand" during the operation.
While the two were away, Stephanie shared many updates on social media. She and Joe went sightseeing and were even caught in some snow. Last week, the actress shared a video of the first time she saw her "new smile". She wept to clinicians as she said they were "perfect".
