The 'Vanderpump Rules' Alum Cleared Speculations About Getting Her Tubes Removed

Before her recent post, Cartwright shared updates to her Instagram story earlier this month, revealing how she felt so much better having her surgical tubes removed.

Because she did not initially specify, but instead said, "So I feel so free, and I feel so much better. It's crazy how much better I instantly felt with having the tubes removed," many fans thought she was referring to her fallopian tubes.

The TV star then made another post revealing she had received DM's and had to clarify that she was referring to her drain tubes before adding, "I still have my fallopian tubes." The Blast also reports that Cartwright announced her surgery as the beginning of a new era for her.

Although the reality TV star is all about body positivity and doing what brings happiness to your life, a year ago, it was revealed that her intentions for the procedures stemmed from her desire to snag a "revenge body."

The Blast in a previous release covered that Cartwright had allegedly undergone multiple other surgeries, but had only opened up about getting a lipo in her jaw and the lower parts of her face to remove her double chin.

Cartwright developed some insecurities after childbirth, mostly about her lower abdomen, and desired to regain her lost sparkle. The treatment was part of her plan to "feel great" about her body following the end of her marriage to Jax Taylor in August 2024.
