By her own admission, Kaitlyn Bristowe has never tried plastic surgery until recently. 'The Bachelorette' host shared an update about how she was going for an ear lobe correction and that the process takes on 15 minutes.  

This comes after months and years of speculation by fans that she had undergone cosmetic procedures to look the way she does right now. But she had quashed those rumors as and when they popped up until Season 17 premiered, in which she took up hosting duties.

"Kaitlyn Bristowe looks different. She looks like Caitlyn Jenner now," one commented on the show's Facebook page, while another wrote: "She had a lot of surgery. Sad that she felt she needed it."

"I think she looks much better back to a brunette. Blonde was wierd on her," a user wrote. A fourth pointed out: "She's had a lot of work done on her face and it really looks bad...That's too bad...she's so young to do that."

In their defense, she looked very different in 'Dancing with the Stars' and in her season of 'The Bachelorette.' But Bristowe knows her truth and in her version of it, she has only gotten it done once.



 

"I’m at a plastic surgeon office, so took advantage of the blue photo back drop. Everyone seems to think I always go under the knife for surgery, but I haven’t till now. Finally. I can share with you guys. I’m getting my ear lobes fixed. Wearing too many heavy Earings over the years can really pull the hole down so we’re gonna cut it and stitch it back up so I can rock some hooooooops. The process takes 15 mins. Haha. K love you guys bye," she posted on Instagram in April 2021.  

Sure thing, she has quite a bit of explaining to do and sadly enough that's not the only topic she will be talking about. Kristowe, along with Tayshia Adams, has replaced Chris Harrison as hosts of the show and that has resulted in fierce reactions among fans online. While some want the show to be canceled, rest have vowed not to watch it until he is brought back.
