“It felt like I’d ruined my face,” she admitted.
Speaking about her decision to let herself age gracefully, Ekland said, “I’m not a dreamer, and getting older happens to everyone. It’s pointless complaining about it or wishing you could change. We’re all going in one direction and there is nothing we can do about that. It’s just about looking after yourself while on that journey.”
Ekland previously spoke out about the traumatic experience during a 2016 interview on “Loose Women”.
“I’ve had to live with newspapers printing horrible pictures of me. They don’t understand that the man who did this used me as some sort of experiment and destroyed [my lips],” she said. “For a really long time I couldn’t do television or films.”
