Bobby Norris was all smiles as he stepped out in London and proudly revealed his refreshed look following his recent facelift.
The former TOWIE star attended the Jackie The Stripper premiere in Leicester Square on Thursday, looking relaxed and upbeat as he posed for cameras at the showbiz event.
Bobby, 39, has spoken openly about his cosmetic journey in recent weeks, including his decision to have surgery after years of using fillers. Last month, he revealed he had spent more than £50,000 on fillers before deciding it was time to take a different route.
The reality TV favourite appeared confident as he enjoyed the night with former co-star Chloe Meadows, while other guests at the event included Pussycat Dolls star Kimberly Wyatt and her husband Max Rogers.

Bobby recently discussed his transformation during an appearance on The Vanessa Feltz Show, where he explained that years in the spotlight had made his appearance a public conversation.
He said he has always tried to be honest with viewers, especially after spending so much of his life on reality television and social media. Rather than pretending the changes never happened, Bobby said he wanted to document parts of the process and speak openly about the reality behind cosmetic procedures.
He also pushed back against the idea that surgery is a quick, simple makeover. Bobby explained that many people imagine a dramatic transformation happens instantly, but the real process involves recovery, discomfort and a much more serious decision than many assume.
During the interview, Vanessa showed an older photo of Bobby from his early TOWIE days, prompting him to list the changes he has made over the years. He joked that almost everything had changed apart from his eyes, naming his nose, teeth, hairline, beard, cheeks, face and neck.

Bobby has previously spoken about body dysmorphia and his difficult relationship with fillers, admitting that he had used them heavily during his years in the entertainment industry.
He said fillers had stretched areas of his face over time, which helped shape his decision to go ahead with a facelift despite being only 39. For Bobby, the procedure was not about trying to look like a teenager again, but about addressing the effects of years of cosmetic work.
His honesty has sparked plenty of reaction from fans, with some praising him for being transparent about the pressure of looking a certain way on television and online.
The premiere itself marked a confident return to the public eye for Bobby, who appeared happy to embrace his new look while enjoying a glamorous night out with familiar faces from the showbiz world.
Jackie The Stripper is described as a British action-comedy and horror-spoof directed by Michael Head. The film follows an undercover squad of female assassins posing as performers as they attempt to take down a secretive organisation linked to a dark past.
While the premiere brought together a mix of reality stars, performers and industry guests, Bobby’s appearance became one of the most talked-about moments of the evening.
After years of public scrutiny, he seemed determined to own his story on his own terms. And as he smiled for photographers in Leicester Square, Bobby looked ready to turn a very personal transformation into a message about honesty, confidence and moving forward.
