'So much better before': ‘90 Day Fiance’ star Shekinah Garner mocked by Internet after nose job
ISTANBUL, TURKEY: '90 Day Fiance' star Shekinah Garner faced criticism from fans, who accused her of undergoing another nose surgery, which they deemed as botched.
Recently, Shekinah shared a life update with her followers through an Instagram story, revealing her bandaged and bruised nose after undergoing a rhinoplasty, performed by Turkish surgeon Dr Alpaslan Yildirim.
In a subsequent Instagram reel with her boyfriend Sarper, her newly shaped nose appeared fully healed. A '90 Day Fiance' fan captured a screenshot of Shekinah's transformed nose, posting it on Reddit in a thread titled "Shekinah's New Nose."
Under the thread, people brutally attacked the '90 Day Fiance' star as one person commented, "Ugly inside and out," and another wrote, "That looks awful. It’s so pointy."
Another person also said, "I would not want to use any of the doctors that did their work." "OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOO it was so much better before!!!!! This doesn’t fit her face I dislike her but I’m genuinely saying it’s bad," another noted.
Many observed that she had already undergone two previous nose surgeries, and the recent procedure altered her appearance significantly.
"Also, she stated she wanted everyone to subscribe to her channel and then she would give you a peek into her nose job, & but I guess she didn't get as much as she wanted because she then posted it herself for the publuc," mentioned a user on Instagram.
"She is 2 steps behind Darcy and Stacy. Bad body image. Plus, Shikienah is trying to be a Kardashian at any cost," a user wrote, referring to Darcey Silva and her twin Stacey Silva, who have also faced backlash for their plastic surgeries.
"Girlie ruined her face back in the 2000's there's no going back from all that plastic," another user wrote.
"Her face is going to fall off if she doesn't stop this nonsense," criticized another user.
