Who is Kyle Christie? Meet 'The Challenge' agent who is unrecognizable after his multiple surgeries

Kyle underwent as many as four plastic surgeries to look the way he is now, including a beard and hair transplant, along with a nose job and chin contouring

Faysal 'Fessy' Shafaat and Kyle Christie are serving drama in Episode 7 of 'The Challenge: Double Agents'. At this point, it's hard to determine the cause of it but the end result has sure-shot fireworks. Both seem to have taken the idiom 'locking horns' quite literally as we see them almost butt heads in the preview clip while Josh Martinez tries his best to separate the two. 

Fessy and Kyle have an underlying tension that only grew manifolds by the end of Episode 2 when the 'Big Brother' alum decided to put the latter in the crater to fight Joseph Allen, who was eventually eliminated. Kyle proved himself to be quite the fighter and was cheered on by fellow agents even though he threw up blood as he contested Joseph during the elimination challenge. He called Fessy out, said he didn't come down to fight him when he realized it would be a physical fight. 

Could the two be fighting about similar issues in tonight's episode? Only time will tell. For now, let's focus on Kyle and his storied past. 

Kyle's cosmetic procedures

Apart from his stint on 'Geordie Shore' and 'The Challenge', Kyle made headlines for his multiple cosmetic procedures that have made him unrecognizable today. Over the years, he has gotten a nose job, a beard transplant, a chin, and jaw contouring, and a hair transplant. And guess how much he spent getting all the work done? Zero. Yes, you've read it right. 

Chatting with The Sun in 2017, he had said people going on about his £11,000 surgery cost was untrue. "I got it done for nought, I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t pay 11 grand, it’s stupid," he said and added: “I spent a year getting all this free stuff done and cosmetic surgery and it doesn’t make you happy, you’ve just got to love yourself. I’m not happier, I just feel more comfortable with my looks.”

Who is Kyle dating?

Kyle met Vicky Turner in 2018. 'The Challenge' agent and the social media manager-model celebrated two years together in December 2020. They were in matching pajamas as they wished each other on social media.
