Former Big Brother finalist Alex Rose Lee looks like a completely different person five years on, after going through cosmetic surgery.

Even the most hardcore of BB fans would struggle to spot her on the street, as she is unrecognisable from the 2011 housemate who finished in third place on the reality TV show:

That's the same Alex, believe it or not.

And she's clearly proud of the way she looks now, posting numerous pictures of herself on social media - including a few with another former Big Brother housemate, Mark Byron.

According to the Daily Star, Alex has had lip fillers, face fillers, Botox, a nose job and a chin reconstruction.

"I looked absolutely horrendous," she told the publication when asked about the reason for all the cosmetic surgery. "Like, why would I go on national television looking like that?

"I'm struggling to understand what was going through my mind.

"It's just crazy. I was 18 years old, and I clearly had no fashion sense and no clue about anything. It's so cringe when I look back. I can't even look at the pictures. That girl does not exist anymore."

Series 12 was won by Aaron Allard-Morgan. Jay McKray was runner-up.
