Controversial: Jodie Cunningham had her breasts enlarged to 36DD on the NHS - and now wants them reduced
[size=1.2em]Josie Cunningham’s former occupation — that of warfare specialist in the Royal Navy — must be coming in rather handy at the moment. For the 23-year-old would-be glamour model has been busy deflecting the salvos fired at her from some very disgruntled taxpayers. [size=1.2em]The single mother-of-two recently sparked outrage by boasting that she had her breasts increased from a 32A to 36DD courtesy of the NHS, then made matters worse by announcing casually just five months later that she’d like her £5,000 implants removed — at a further cost of £1,600 — because they are attracting too much negative publicity.
[size=1.2em]It’s an audacious volte-face from a woman who has been dubbed Katie Cut-Price for her aspirations to emulate the glamour model of the same name. Especially as she is hoping that the NHS will, once again, carry out the procedure.
[size=1.2em]‘I was very deserving of my boob job,’ says Josie, who lives in Leeds.
[size=1.2em]‘But the problem was, I rushed into the decision to have them taken up to a 36DD, and I don’t feel very confident about them now.
[size=1.2em]‘Everyone is knocking me, but I want loads more surgery to make me look good. I want people to take me seriously and stop branding me just “the girl with the big NHS boobs”. It’s unfair.’
[size=1.2em]‘Unfair’ is a word that has been used rather frequently where Josie is concerned.
[size=1.2em]Critics argue that the NHS money used to increase her breast size should have been spent on far more deserving cases.
[size=1.2em]Indeed, it was revealed that just a few miles away from her home in Leeds, two-year-old cerebral palsy sufferer Oliver Dockerty had been turned down for funding for an operation which could allow him to walk.
[size=1.2em]Thankfully, after reading about his plight in the Daily Mail, generous readers helped to raise the £24,000 needed for Oliver to have his operation privately.
[size=1.2em]Angry members of the public have even created an online petition demanding that Josie pay the money that was spent on her surgery back to the state. [size=1.2em]Josie, however, remains unrepentant, arguing that the operation was justified due to the ‘emotional distress’ she had suffered as a result of having small breasts.
[size=1.2em]Moreover, she believes she has every right to reverse the boob job — again at the taxpayer’s expense.
[size=1.2em]‘I agree that it’s disgusting that some people are refused medical treatment, but it’s the NHS’s decision, not mine,’ she says.
[size=1.2em]‘I’ve paid taxes since I was 15 years old, so have my mum and dad. We’ve paid into the system, and my case was not just about cosmetic changes, it was about my peace of mind.
Before and after: Josie was a 32A (left) before the NHS surgery to boost her bust to a 36DD (right)
[size=1.2em]‘If I was in charge, I’d give everyone the treatment they needed — particularly children and soldiers who have lost limbs. But to those people who say I didn’t need the first operation, I’d say you haven’t been through what I’ve suffered. Just try and go through it yourselves before you comment. It’s horrendous.’
[size=1.2em]So what exactly is this hell that Josie Cunningham has endured?
