A WOMAN has revealed that she was left fighting for her life after getting an ‘extreme’ Brazilian butt lift (BBL).

The influencer known as @TheeHtxHottiee, 30, says her latest cosmetic surgery journey in Mexico turned into a nightmare, warning others of the hidden dangers of medical tourism.

She told how she was left with multiple problems revolving around infections, which landed her in hospital, and how the result is more than she bargained for. 

She says: “I went for a tummy tuck and a BBL. 

“My BBL is TOO big – and it nearly killed me. 

“I was in surgery double the time that I was supposed to be. I lost so much blood that I had to get six blood transfusions.” 

What was meant to be a routine enhancement turned life-threatening when complications spiralled out of control. 

The Texas born influencer described how what began as a bid to perfect her figure with a second BBL, ended in five emergency surgeries, including a painful skin graft. 

Photos and clips shared online show the dramatic results of what she now describes as an ‘extreme BBL,’ a much larger result than what she originally hoped for. 

Making matters even worse, the language barrier in Mexico left her family in the dark during her hours-long operation. 

While her first BBL went smoothly, she claims this second operation nearly cost her her life. 

Now, she’s speaking out about the risks she went through to get her eye-catching figure. 

She says: “When I got back to the US, I was admitted into the hospital for almost four months due to an infection in my bloodstream and an infection on the skin where my tummy tuck was closed. 

“They had to take skin from my thighs and put it on my stomach. 

“My mother and twin sister thought I was dead because I had been in surgery so long with no word. 

“When I awoke, they were already driving down to Mexico. 

“I wanted to be honest about what happened. 

“People don’t always see the dangerous side.”

JON JONES was charged with fleeing with scene of an accident just days before announcing his retirement.

Court records show the Hall of Famer was charged with leaving the scene of an accident, which caused no great bodily harm or death, on June 17.

But records show that the alleged incident took place in New Mexico back on February 24.

The police report states that a woman was found in the front passenger seat of one of the cars involved in the incident.

The woman, according to the report, was “exhibiting signs of significant intoxication and lacking clothing from the waist down.”

She is said to have told the police that Jones was the driver and ran away from the scene on foot before calling the MMA icon.

A police aide stated the person on the phone, who they believed to be Jones, “appeared to be heavily intoxicated and made statements implying his capacity to employ lethal force through third parties.”

Jones is also said to have not directly identified himself to police during the conversation, in which he allegedly made “allusions to violence”.

In an interview with police, Jones claims the woman found in the car was intoxicated when she left his house earlier in the day.

He claims she rang him after getting into the crash and passed the phone over to an officer who “immediately opened the conversations with unprofessional language, which led him to doubt the legitimacy of the individual’s claim.”

In the police report, the woman found in the car claims she drank alcohol and took mushrooms at Jones’ house, with her “next recollection was being at the scene of a traffic accident.”

But she remained adamant the person driving the car was Jones, who, in the police report, is said to have called the woman 13 times and sent her scores of text messages from the time of he crash until the following morning.

Jones, 37, is no stranger to falling afoul of the law when it comes to driving.

In 2015, he was charged with a felony hit and run after crashing into two cars – one of which was being driven by a pregnant woman – and leaving the scene on foot.

Jones, who faced a litany of DUI’s during his career, pled guilty to leaving the scene of a crime and served 18 months probation for the incident, which led to him being stripped of the light-heavyweight title.

The bombshell news came on the same day Jones announced he wouldn’t be fighting Brit Tom Aspinall in an eagerly-anticipated heayweight title unification fight and would be retiring from MMA.

He wrote on X: “Today, I’m officially announcing my retirement from the UFC.

“This decision comes after a lot of reflection, and I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the journey I’ve experienced over the years.

“From the first time I stepped into the Octagon, my goal was to push the boundaries of what was possible in this sport.

“Becoming the youngest UFC champion in history, defending my title against some of the best fighters in the world, and sharing unforgettable moments with fans across the globe—these are memories I’ll cherish forever.

I’m officially announcing my retirement from the UFC

Jon Jones

“I’ve faced incredible highs and some tough lows, but every challenge has taught me something valuable and made me stronger, both as a fighter and as a person.

“I want to thank the UFC, Dana, Hunter, Lorenzo, God, my family, coaches, teammates, and all the fans who have stood by me through every chapter.

“Your unwavering support and belief in me have been my foundation.

“To my fellow fighters, thank you for bringing out the best in me and for the respect we’ve shared inside and outside the cage.

“As I close this chapter of my life, I look forward to new opportunities and challenges ahead.

“MMA will always be a part of who I am.

“And I’m excited to see how I can continue to contribute to the sport and inspire others in new ways.

“Thank you all for being part of this incredible journey with me. The best is yet to come.”

According to reports, talks between Rulani Mokwena and Orlando Pirates have reached an advanced stage but...

A LEADING deep sea diver who warned Stockton Rush over Titan sub’s catastrophic safety risks says victims were “deceived”.

Titanic expedition leader Rob McCallum talked almost 40 people out of going on the doomed sub – which claimed five lives when it imploded two years ago.

McCallum, who has led seven dives to the Titanic, implored OceanGate boss Rush to let an independent agency test his vessel.

But his warnings over the sub’s critical safety failings fell on deaf ears and “intolerant” Rush simply brushed aside cautions from experts.

The world was put in a chokehold when the unclassed sub vanished from radar during a 12,500ft dive down to the Titanic wreckage.

Five days after it disappeared on June 18, 2023, a piece of debris was found on the ocean floor – confirming fears it had imploded.

All five on board – Rush, British billionaire Hamish Harding, 58, French Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet, 77, British-Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48, and son Suleman, 19 – were killed.

Harrowing emails show McCallum tried to warn Rush over Titan’s danger – but the OceanGate CEO replied he was “tired of industry players who try to use a safety argument to stop innovation”.

Rush wrote: “We have heard the baseless cries of ‘you are going to kill someone’ way too often. I take this as a serious personal insult.”

McCallum said their tense email exchange ended after OceanGate’s lawyers threatened legal action, and so he focussed on limiting the number of people who boarded Titan.

He told The Sun: “I’d written to him three or four times, and he wasn’t going to change.

“I’d run out of options. I thought the sub would not survive sea trials and so I just focused on trying to limit the number of people that got into that thing.

“I probably talked three dozen people out of going on Titan, and I wouldn’t get melodramatic about it, because I didn’t want to over dramatise it.

“Both because I wanted them to keep listening to what I was saying, but also I didn’t want to become a drama queen and sort of written off as hysterical.

“And so my simple answer was always, I would never get in an unclassed vehicle and nor should you.”

McCallum said he spoke to both Harding and Nargeolet, who both decided to take the risk.

But he said Dawood and his son Suleman would have had “no idea” about the danger they were putting themselves in on the £195,000 dive as OceanGate downplayed the risk.

McCallum said: “Hamish and Paul-Henri knew it was risky, but not the level of risk that they were taking.

“The other two had no idea at all. And the reason that there’s that uncertainty is because I think there was a concerted effort of deception.

“If you look at the culture of OceanGate, they weren’t willing to take outside commentary, and anyone inside the camp that spoke out got fired or worse.

“And so you’ve got this diminishing group of people that are only listening to themselves and they just tuned out the talk of the risk.

“The risk was still there. But they just weren’t talking about it anymore.”

McCallum, who founded expedition company EYOS, said all of those who he successfully advised not to board Titan realise they had a “close call”.

He added: “Within 48 hours of the implosion one rang up in tears and said, ‘I owe you my life. I was going to get into that sub, and I couldn’t get your voice out of my head, and so I turned around and came home’.

“He lost his deposit but he said ‘I just couldn’t get your voice out of my head’, and he was in tears.

“People are very conscious that they had a close call.”

McCallum said on the fateful day of the sub’s disappearance from radar he “just felt sick”.

After the sub lost contact with its support ship Polar Prince rescue crews worked around the clock in what was thought to be a race against time to save the crew.

But McCallum said it was clear the sub had imploded.

“I knew immediately what had happened,” he said.

“There were two or three days when everyone was going through the search and rescue.

“I didn’t understand that because we knew it had imploded.

“I was sad to lose some friends and shipmates. But I was grateful for small mercies that it would have been instantaneous.”

Engineer Rush, who co-founded OceanGate in 2009, created Titan with an experimental design made up of a carbon-fiber pod with titanium rings bolted on.

McCallum said carbon fiber material is not fit for submerging so deep underwater.

But McCallum’s warning that carbon fiber would not withstand such pressure, Rush informed him he was “going to carry on regardless”.

In 2018, OceanGate’s then chief pilot David Lochridge was fired after his inspection report laid bare a series of safety risks.

A report from the Marine Board of Investigation is expected to be released in the coming weeks.

McCallum said: “The report will be comprehensive and should cover all of the attributing elements that led to the disaster.  

“It will also indicate who is responsible and who might be subject to prosecution.”

THE imposing Victorian walls have held some of Britain’s worst murderers, rapists, and criminals – including Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe and Ronnie Kray.

But tales about what life is really like inside Broadmoor are almost as rare as successful escapes.

The notorious institution is home to some of Britain’s most dangerous criminals[/caption]

But now, one man who worked inside the heart of the hospital for over two decades has revealed to The Sun just what it was like to come face to face with those who committed unspeakable crimes, day in, day out.

Neil Wheatcroft, now aged 73, worked at Broadmoor between 1987 and 2009, first as the hospital’s head chef, and then as a nursing assistant. 

“You became cold to the things that happen. Gratuitous violence was nothing,” told Neil.

“The things we’ve seen and witnessed, the patients that arrive, you read their notes and about what they’ve done.

“You had, for example, a patient that cut off a policeman’s arm, took his head off, put it in a Tesco’s bag, and cooked the arm just to see what it would taste like. 

“One minute you read about it – the next minute you’re standing opposite them.”

First opened in 1863 as Broadmoor Criminal Lunatic Asylum, to this day it remains the most well-known high security psychiatric hospital in England. 

Other notable patients include serial killer Robert Maudsley, nicknamed “Hannibal the Cannibal”, Charles Bronson, dubbed Britain’s “most violent prisoner”, and Kenneth Erskine – a.k.a. the Stockwell Strangler.

Paedophile entertainer Jimmy Savile was a regular visitor, and bosses even gave him his own set of keys – yet we now know he abused dozens of patients.

But to Neil, crossing paths with evil was just another day on the job.

“My family could never understand how I could work there and come home like nothing had happened,” he said.

“There was another one – I can’t remember his name – who ate somebody. They used to call him Peckish. He would have eaten anybody. 

“Others would have slit their throats with anything they could find.”

Ripper’s ‘dinner parties’

The Yorkshire Ripper brutally murdered at least 13 women between 1975 and 1980 and was sent to Broadmoor in 1985, after being diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.

But, as Neil recounts, his life in Broadmoor wasn’t as stark as many might imagine – despite face the occasional attack from other inmates.

Sutcliffe would often hold “after hours” evening dinner specials on his ward, along with others in his crew.

It made a welcome change from the usual food they were given, with treats like barbecued smoked chicken, steak ribs, and chips on offer – paid for out of their own pocket.

Even here, at the dinner table, he was able to strike fear into the heart of seasoned staff at Broadmoor.

“From the very first meal I did with my colleague, you would look across the room and see him sitting round the dinner table – and he’s looking back at you,” recounted Neil.

“There’s absolutely nothing behind his eyes. They were black like death, and not one bit of emotion. 

“There are a lot of prisoners in there who have done bad things – but he stood out.

“The others at that table were more affable and appreciative.”

Bizarrely, despite his horrendous crimes, the serial killer had a legion of female fans who would regularly write him letters.

And sometimes, they’d even come to Broadmoor to meet him in the flesh. 

We always used to liken it to the scene in the Italian Job, when Mr Bridger comes down the stairs – that was the aura he had

“He had visits, and used to get women truck drivers coming onto the ward,” recalled Neil.  

“He just sat and talked. It was strange – why would an ordinary woman want to go out with a murderer?”

Wedding feast

Sutcliffe is far from the only long term resident of Broadmoor to have entertained romance while living behind bars.

Ronnie Kray, the notorious East End gangster, was convicted along with his twin Reggie for the murders of George Cornell and Jack ‘The Hat’ McVitie in 1969, and sentenced to life with a minimum of 30 years.

A decade later, Ronnie was diagnosed with schizophrenia and transferred to Broadmoor where he lived until his death in 1995 from a heart attack, aged 61.

Being who he was, he had quite the reputation among both patients and staff – and never let standards slack, recalled Neil.

“We always used to liken it to the scene in the Italian Job, when Mr Bridger comes down the stairs,” Neil said.

“That was the aura he had.

“The others would slob about in tracksuit bottoms, but he was always dressed in pristine suits and really smart.”

But Ronnie’s mind wasn’t always as put together as his outfits.

“He would be lucid one day, and then black in the next. 

“He had a very, very quick fuse, but it would be equally quick going.”

Despite these outbursts, Ronnie ended up marrying twice while locked up. 

His first, in 1985, was to Elaine Mildener, though the couple divorced in 1989.

The second was to Kate Howard, who was 23 years his junior. 

He sent me a list – on it was quail’s eggs, dressed ham, and jellied eels

They wed the same year as his divorce from his first wife, tying the knot in a romantic ceremony in the hospital’s chapel. 

But it was down to Neil to look after the celebrations that followed.

“He said, what can you give me? And I just said, well, it’s your day – what do you want?,” said Neil as he recalled organising his wedding feat.

“He sent me a list – on it was quails’ eggs, dressed ham and jellied eels. We also did a whole salmon dressed on a blue aspic base.”

Broadmoor boyfriends

He added: “There were about 14 or 15 people there, and a lot of staff. His brothers came in from various establishments. 

“They came under escort, would be escorted onto the chapel, and then the reception was up in one of the rooms. 

“The wedding was paid upfront – he wasn’t short of money.”

Broadmoor staff even discovered a business card in 1985 which revealed that the twins, from separate institutions, were operating a “bodyguard and protection” business for Hollywood stars while locked up.

Ronnie’s second marriage also ended in divorce five years later, and he passed away in 1995.

Being such a character and having lived in Broadmoor for so long, his death hit hard for a lot of the other patients. 

They were losing a friend – and in some cases, a boyfriend, remembered Neil.

Ronnie Kray, who was bisexual, enjoyed same-sex relationships with others in Broadmoor even while married, though all visits were supervised by staff.

“There was only one that was sort of special, though,” said Neil. 

“And I’m almost sure his bride knew as well.”

Daring escape

While Ronnie became accustomed to life on the inside, others had their mind focussed on escape.

Broadmoor, famously, was surrounded by air-raid sirens that were installed to warn locals if someone had made it out

Their frightening howl became a weekly staple for residents living in towns nearby, as the klaxons would be tested every Monday morning.

He was actually planning his escape – right down to the finest details

Neil Wheatcroft

But when the sirens sounded one day in 1991, it wasn’t a routine test – a child rapist was on the loose.

James Saunders was sentenced to life in 1985 after being convicted for the rape of two girls aged 11 and 15. 

But he was clever – and devised a complicated plan to ensure others were distracted while he made his way to the outside. 

“The one that went over the wall wanted to organise a pizza making event in the central hall, on Saturday night,” said Neil.

“All the time this was happening, he was actually planning his escape – right down to the finest details. 

“So, on the Saturday night when we’d put staff members in the hall to dish out the dough so they could have this competition, he was on his way getting ready to go over the wall. 

“He’d arranged it purely for the fact that it would mean most people were in the central hall.”

Saunders – who was given the nickname “Wolfman” after living in the wild for three weeks after his escape – then managed to run across the courtyard and over two 20ft high walls to make his getaway.

“When the alarms go off at four o’clock in the morning, and then you realise it’s not Monday morning, you just think – oh bugger,” said Neil.

“Everybody had to go up to Broadmoor to sign in and be told where you had to go.

“I was on shift from half past four until half past two the next morning.”

Hundreds of cops descended on the area, with some even coming from as far as Aylesbury.

But as it turned out, Saunders had in fact made it all the way to Dorset.

He was eventually spotted by a policeman walking along a road, with a fishing rod and blanket in hand. 

Held in Broadmoor ever since, in 2010 a nurse was alleged to have had sexual relations with him in the laundry room. 

Rihanna won the Icon Award at the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards. The award was introduced by South African host Tyla.

Both Kelleher and Murphy have been together after he courted her for years.

He told LFC.com website: “My girlfriend is very good at Irish dancing, so I’ve been trying to learn a bit of that.

“I used to do it at school back home, so I’ve been trying to pick it up because I want to learn it again.

“I’ve actually been getting on quite good at it, so one day I want to be able to do a full dance or something like that.

“You have to have your feet in great coordination and be able to move them so quickly, so it definitely helps in terms of goalkeeping. It does me no harm.

“I won’t be showing it to anybody!”
