Her ample bosom has been one of the major talking points of this year’s Strictly Come Dancing.
Now Chelsee Healey has revealed that she regrets having her breasts enlarged as a teenager, when she was overcome by insecurities about her figure.
The Waterloo Road actress, 23, broke down in tears in front of millions of viewers last month after her low-cut gown slipped to reveal her bust while dancing the tango with partner Pasha Kovalev.
She said she has now been forced to ask for extra support in her skimpy costumes.
Earlier in the series, viewers complained that the show’s camera angles seemed to be focusing lecherously on the cleavage of female contestants, in particular Miss Healey.
The 5ft 1in actress, who is due to perform the samba this evening in a more demure dress, has now spoken of her regret over having her bosom enlarged from a 32C to a 32DD in 2007.
She said friends encouraged her to go for the £3,000 operation in Spain to cope with her negative feelings about her body.
She said: ‘I’d hated my boobs for as long as I can remember. I’m naturally outgoing, but in this area I lacked self-esteem.
'By the time I was 19, I was desperate to change. I took £3,000 from a trust fund my dad had set up for me.
‘I knew I’d never be happy until I got the shape I wanted.’

She added: ‘There’s always been a part of me that wished I’d not had them done, but it was a long time ago and there’s nothing I can change now. I was young and if it was a decision I was making now, I wouldn’t have gone through with it. Not now I’m older and a bit wiser. I feel they’re a bit too big and I’ve only got a little frame.’
Miss Healey also confessed that she has found it difficult to handle online criticism of her raunchy costumes by Strictly fans.
