Kellie was said to be in “utter turmoil” at having to cancel the surgery, but announced the exciting news on Tuesday that she was now going ahead with the operation after all, saying she was “so happy” to be taking the next step in her transgender journey.

She was left “fighting for her life” after complications arose from a cosmetic procedure she was undergoing in Belgium last year, leaving her unconscious for four days, severely swollen and and with bleeding eyes.

“I thought I would never again pass as a woman or be able to go out in public. I was grotesquely swollen.”

Kellie - who had previously been known to the British public as Frank, for her work in the field of boxing - came out as transgender in an interview late last year, shortly before receiving what is thought to have been the highest fee in ‘CBB’ history to appear in the house.
