Kimmel, who also lives with alopecia (a condition that causes hair loss), tested positive for the BRCA1 gene (a tumor suppressor gene that produces a protein crucial for DNA repair, particularly in the process of homologous recombination.)

Talking about her experience, she said: “Okay, so first, my bald head: I have alopecia, and my hair just doesn’t grow,”

“I’ve had it for 21 years, since I was nine, and for me, it was probably stress-induced. I had a bit of a traumatic childhood.

The mum of six shared that she chose to go flat—not because of any illness, but because it makes her feel more confident in her body.

“The other thing that confuses people is that I had a preventive mastectomy—so, no boobs—and not because I’ve ever had cancer.

“It was preventative. I had a preventive mastectomy so that I can be alive to watch my son grow up.”

“I asked my doctor if she saw anything in my chart and if she suggested anything, because I didn’t know what my insurance situation would be like,”

“I always noted that my dad’s side of the family had a strong history of breast cancer—my grandma, aunts, cousins. Everyone seemed to get it.”

How she feels when doctors diagnosed her with BRCA1 Gene, she said: “Tears just slowly started rolling down my face,”

“She was the kindest person. She said, ‘I’d love to give you a hug if you’d want one,’ and she did. She told me I had options.”

She added: “I was going to learn to love myself just as I am. At the time, my son was six months old and I was still breastfeeding. I wanted to breastfeed for at least a year before making any decisions.”

She said she breastfed her son, Abraham, in 2020 before having the surgery in 2021.

She added: “I had everything ready.

“My insurance was in place, I had saved money to recover mentally, financially, physically.

“I even had friends in the creative community who filmed my story the week before surgery. I have photos of me breastfeeding the night before I went into the hospital.

“When I woke up from surgery, I had no tattoos, just scars, and a fresh chapter.

“I made this choice not to make anyone else feel comfortable about my existence, but just for me

“Every time I post a video, I get questions about the way I look.

“People ask why I don’t have boobs or hair—and usually in the rudest way possible. But some people are kind. And when they ask with kindness, I’m happy to share.

“I actually cut off what was left of my hair at 19 because I felt like I was at the bottom of my depression. I couldn’t even look in the mirror. Self-love is an everyday type of thing.”

Now 32, she says: “It’s taken a long time to just be able to look at myself and love everything that I am.” Her path to healing came unexpectedly after a stranger at Urban Outfitters offered to take her portrait.

A mom named Rachel has defied the odds by giving birth to quadruplets—without the help of fertility treatments—in what doctors say is a one-in-40-million chance pregnancy.

Rachel and her husband, Marco Vargas, welcomed their four baby girls—Sofía, Philomena, Veronica, and Isabel—at just 30 weeks.

Due to the high-risk nature of the pregnancy, Rachel spent several months under specialist care before finally being discharged from the hospital alongside her daughters.

Speaking about their journey, Rachel shared: “We’re so excited to start this new chapter of our lives,”

“While it hasn’t been an easy journey, we’re thankful that we came to Banner and Dr. [John] Elliott for care, and we can’t wait to share the milestones that will come with raising our beautiful girls.”

Rachel gave birth via C-section on January 24th, 2025, after months of being under close specialist care due to the high-risk nature of her pregnancy. The babies arrived at just 30 weeks and were immediately placed in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for monitoring.

What made Rachel’s pregnancy even more challenging was the presence of several rare and dangerous complications. Two of the babies shared an amniotic sac and suffered from velamentous cord insertion (VCI)—a condition where the umbilical cord doesn’t properly attach to the placenta, which can drop survival chances to just 30–40%.

Additionally, two of the girls were diagnosed with twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), a rare condition affecting identical twins who share a placenta.

In TTTS, one twin receives too little blood (the “donor”) while the other receives too much (the “recipient”), putting both babies at serious risk.

Despite the frightening odds, Rachel and Marco stayed hopeful.

Speaking to Good Morning America, Marco shared: “It was glorious seeing these girls being triumphantly being pulled out.

“I felt a huge sense of relief because I felt like they had made it; they were going to be okay.” Rachel added

Dr John Elliott said: “With all the complications involved in Rachel’s pregnancy, we were very candid about the risks and potential outcomes.

“But we also underscored the importance of having a positive outlook.

“I believe that played an important role in her successful case, along with constant top-class medical care throughout their stay in Phoenix.

“Marco and Rachel – they never wavered.”

King of Ink Land King Body Art, known as Britain’s most tattooed man, has revealed that he often faces criticism and arguments whenever he steps out in public.

Having spent over 1,600 hours modifying his body with tattoos, he admits that his extreme appearance often draws stares, judgment, and even fear from strangers—especially when traveling.

Speaking about his experiences, he shared that people react strongly to his looks, sometimes even moving away from him in public spaces.

He said: “I see people spot an empty seat next to me and then when they see what I look like, they sometimes decide to stand and not sit next to me.

“But most trains and buses are overrun these days, so they don’t have a choice.

“I also regularly spot people aiming their phones at me and snapping a photo.

“It happened the other day as I was waiting at the bus stop.

“Most of the time, I challenge people when they do this.

“It sometimes leads to a heated argument and I’ve had lots of attitude thrown back in my face

“It’s so blatant; they position themselves in odd angles or they still have their sound on, so I hear the flash.

“Sometimes it’s how you deal with these situations and people that make all the difference, especially when you look like me.

“But I wish people would just ask if they want to take a photo of me.”

He shared his experience with immigration officers, adding that: “I once flew into Australia and was stopped by immigration immediately.

“They thought I was going there to work because of the way I look.

“I had to explain I was seeing family and they asked to see my social media and all my contacts before letting me through.

“Once, I had to run to a connecting flight and my passport photo was different to how I looked, as I just had my eyes inked.

“So they took ages checking it over and even called the military police.

“I almost missed my flight, but luckily, they understood and eventually let me through.

“In Sydney, I wasn’t allowed into a posh building due to my tattoos.

“I had to prove I wasn’t affiliated with a gang for them to let me in.”

He explained how he avoids judgmental people, He said: “I normally turn my back on anybody acting in a certain way around me now.

“Any photos or videos sneakily being taken are only going to be sent to a group chat for people to air their opinions.

“It’s not going to hold me back in life, as I respect people and as long as they do the same for me, that’s all that matters.”

A woman who spent £5,000 on facial surgery in Turkey has revealed that she is now unable to close her eyes.

Joanne Law, a 56-year-old mother, said she underwent the procedure hoping to achieve a look similar to a Snapchat filter. However, the results were far from what she expected or wanted.

She explained that after losing seven stone following a successful gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey in February 2023, she began to feel wrinkly. Wanting to improve her appearance, she decided to have additional cosmetic work.

Joanne saved up £5,200 for another procedure at the same hospital, undergoing a face, neck, and eyelid lift, along with a fat graft, in June 2023.

However, shortly after the surgery, she developed blepharitis—an inflammation of the eyelids. On top of that, she suffered from painful scars behind her eyes and ears, making the experience even more unbearable.

Narrating, she said: “When I lost seven stone I just felt wrinkly, so I thought this is my next step, I’ll get my face done,” she said.

“I was chuffed the whole time and that was my downfall. I didn’t research enough because I trusted them. The procedure was around the back of the hospital in a basement. It frightened the hell out of me, it was awful, like a horror movie. 

“There was an old-fashioned bed screen separator, someone was being operated on the other side in the same theatre. Immediately after I got blepharitis, which is a bacterial infection, and had blisters under my eyes for three months.

“I still can’t fully close my eyes now. I’m struggling to drive at night now because the car lights hurt my eyes and I just can’t close them. When it’s windy out I just can’t see, my eyes fill with tears. My eyes are so dry so they need to tear up to be protected from the elements.

“When I get tired, the bottom of my eye droops. I’ll be driving and will have to pull over at services and shut my eyes because I’ll be driving as if I’ve had no sleep for a week. You can see one of my eyeballs more than the other.

“I got a turkey neck, it wobbles, and they didn’t tighten my muscles. I have scars on the back of my ear and earlobe so I can’t put earpods in my ear and it is still painful. It’s like a five-year-old’s done it.

“I’m really deflated because my sleeve was such a success I thought I was going to look like something straight out of a snapchat filter.”

Joanne also shared that her eyelid issues have severely impacted her confidence. When she reached out to the hospital about her condition, they assured her that the scarring was normal and advised her to wait 12 months for recovery.

She added saying; “I’m not rich, I was saving up and gave things up, and I was really excited for the surgery. One side of my scars is different from the other, as if two different people were stitching me up for quickness.

“The fat graft made me look like a cartoon character, it’s changed how I look. It just made my face flat and weird. I’ve sent them pictures every month and they kept saying to wait 12 months. Now they’re just ignoring me.”

“What made me suspicious was I couldn’t find any before and after photographs of the surgeon’s work.

 “I remember he fobbed me off to the point that I believed him. I was excited about what I was going to have done and ignored my gut feeling.

“I’ve been so frustrated, I want to scream to other girls and say don’t do it. The recovery was horrendous, there was no aftercare. That hospital is a butcher’s shop.”

A model who gained viral attention for requiring men to take an intelligence test before dating her now regrets her decision, saying it has prevented her from finding true love.

Candice Kloss, a model with an IQ of 136, had been asking potential dates to take an IQ test for the past three years before considering a relationship.

However, she has now admitted that she regrets her approach, as it has ultimately hindered her chances of getting a man in her life.

She said: “I think it was totally unreasonable for me to ask this of my dates and I really regret it now

“It’s a possibility that I’ve missed out on someone who could’ve been my Mr Right.

“Since stopping the test, I’ve already met such a wide variety of people and I’m no longer so close-minded about romantic possibilities.

“I feel less pressure and dating has actually become more enjoyable now.

“I’ve come to realise that sometimes people might not know much about business or politics but they know loads about another topic.

“It’s been really surprising.”

She added that she still hasn’t found a man, saying: ““I’m still searching but I think part of the reason I haven’t met the right person yet is because I can be a bit high-maintenance.

A lot of the dates I’ve been on aren’t aware of my IQ until a little bit later on and this has helped with people not being deterred by my brain.

“In the past, it has hindered my chances of finding love.

“For instance, I have corrected a few dates before, such as if they pronounced a word wrong, and they didn’t seem too pleased.

“I’m not trying to be a know-it-all, it’s more in a bid to help them, but it only makes things awkward.

“Men like to feel confident and as if they have the upper hand.”

Mingling with people other than her, she said:  “All my friends are way older, as I don’t really have anything in common with people my age.

“I don’t understand pop culture references or the jokes they make, and I don’t really have time to watch viral videos.

“My best friend is in her 40s.

“I also read a lot about things like marketing, biochemistry, real estate and finance – both for pleasure and to sharpen up my knowledge.”

As Valentine came up, any plans for a soulmate, she said: ‘I have no current plans and will probably buy chocolates for myself.

“Who knows, though?

“If I can find a guy who’s nerdy, has a sense of humour, is rich and well-travelled, then I might have a chance.

“For me, mutual respect and honesty are the priority over intelligence now.

“I think it’s important to give everyone a chance, as it’s the only way to find happiness.”

A woman named Callum Black has revealed that she bought a doll resembling herself for her boyfriend, who has a high libido.

According to Callum, she and her boyfriend have even given the doll a name—Dee.

She said: “We were talking about spicing things up and having a threesome or foursome, but like most girls, I was worried I’d struggle to see Callum with another woman.

‘It was a joint decision to buy a sex doll, but it was the best decision and has definitely improved our sex life.

“It’s great because Callum has a high sex drive and if I’m not in the mood he’s got Dee there.

“We both love experimenting with her – and she regularly joins our steamy sessions too.

“She’s not just a doll – we’re really attached to her.

“She’s helped to strengthen our relationship – and set our sex lives on fire.

According to her, she and her boyfriend have been together for about four years, and this isn’t the first doll they’ve purchased. However, she noted that their first doll didn’t meet their expectations, which led them to get Dee.

She added saying: “There were so many to choose from, but we eventually found Dee, who we think looks like me.

“I never get jealous because there’s no emotion there – she’s not real but she’s definitely spiced things up.

“Callum has a higher sex drive than me, so it’s great that he has Dee when I don’t want to have sex

Callum also shared that Dee has had a positive impact on their relationship. She emphasized that she takes good care of the doll, adding, “We’d never put her away in a cupboard.”

Jari Jones and Corey Kempster, a trans couple, have openly shared their unique love story, revealing that both were assigned male at birth but now identify as female.

In a  interview with Truly, the couple discussed their journey together, sharing that they have been in a loving relationship for two and a half years. 

How they met, Corey said: “we have been bestfriends for almost 8years, we were not both trans when we met, We met identifying on the guy queer spectrum when we met I barely knew what trans met I think in so many ways we took all the first steps exploring our genders together.

Jari added saying: “I remember the first time I ever wore a dress and corey was like look that’s it it clicks.

Corey added: “I really took her opinion serious and i feel like if i had her approval then who gives the hell like what everybody else says.”

Corey opened up about his childhood, recalling how, even as a young boy, he felt like he was in the wrong body

He added saying, ” when i was a little kid i knew very well that I wanted to be a girl sometimes i would wish that there was another boy that was like mw……… Basically i was looking for a trans girlfriend and that was what i found in jari years later

“I remember when i grew up I used to play with my peers and pretend like i was a princess, i think like how much 

“Instead of taking the labels they put on me, i’m labeling myself, i’m proud to be a woman, i’m proud to be feminine, i’m proud to be trans.

Jari on his part said: “I think one of the greatest part of discovering myself was having somebody like corey.”

How they feel, they added saying: “the transness in our womanhood is all about who we are, the medical steps are about feeling at peace, feeling comfortable and safe within who we are, within our body, within the society.”

Tayla Clement, a woman living with a rare condition called Moebius syndrome, has shared her journey of not being able to smile due to the disorder.  

Tayla explained that her challenges began around the age of 11 or 12, after undergoing an invasive operation aimed at helping her smile. Unfortunately, the procedure was unsuccessful, leaving her unable to express emotions in that way.  

She also opened up about the bullying she endured over the years, which made it difficult for her to accept herself. 

How she feels about her face, she said: “I think my confidence got knocked out of me as i got older I didn’t want to go anywhere because i was insecure about myself but when it comes to physical bullying it is tough I have been pushed down hills, I have had my bag ripped off my bag… It was tough, I would always look at people and be like why can’t i beat them, why can’t I just be accepted like they are accepting everyone else 

“I first started the first help journey around the age of 20 but that doesn’t mean I fully accepted myself then it has been 4years of me really working hard and all aspects in my life to make sure i can live the best life I possibly can 

“When i started to own who i was and my parents, everything about myself, my whole world opened up 

How being an Athlete has made her accept who she is, she added saying: “Being an athlete has giving me so much discipline, strength and confidence and it really sit me up and i think it helped in terms of my recovery journey and everything changed since accepting myself my confidence, who i am, the way I interact with people and those online being 100% authentic to me like I’m probably one of the most sarcastic people you will ever meet.”

Marcela has revealed that she has spent $100,000 transforming herself into a real-life Barbie.  

She shared that her transformation involved Botox, fillers, injections, surgeries, tanning, and extensive hair and makeup.

 Marcela explained that she has always admired Barbie, describing the doll as her idol and inspiration.  

“All my life, I’ve tried to look like a doll. Barbie has always inspired me because of their motto: ‘You can be anything you want to be.’ When I came to America 25 years ago, I had a dream, and I made that dream happen because I truly believe you can be anything you want,” she said.  

Marcela’s journey began in 2012 with Botox, and she estimates that she has spent $100,000 on various procedures since then. Her first major cosmetic surgery was a breast augmentation in 2022. Reflecting on her transformation, she said, “”My first procedure was in 2012 i have botox and roughly i have spent botox, fillers, injections, surgeries, tanning, hair and makeup around $100k my big first cosmetic surgery was my breast which i have done in 2022 and when i look at the best version of myself.”

She also shared a personal reason behind her Barbie obsession. “The reason that i wanted to emulate the barbie doll is because my mother never bought me a barbie doll she disliked the doll and i love the aesthetics of the doll so i wanted to look like her not because i wasn’t secure about i perceived the doll aesthetically.”

When addressing critics, Marcela admitted it was initially challenging to deal with negative comments. “People would say, ‘You look ugly,’ ‘You look awful,’ ‘You look old,’ ‘You don’t look like Barbie,’ or ‘You look like a plastic doll.’ Which was like oh that’s great I look like a plastic doll yeah that is not an insult and it took me like a while to process the bad comments that people are going to be mean no matter what so after i understood that it’s like who cares i mean i’m not going to pay attention anymore i just want to be happy and i don’t care what other people have to think.”

A woman named Arrogance shared her experience of spending $80,000 on her husband, Zyion, while he was in prison.

In an interview with Love Don’t Judge, she revealed that they’ve been married for five years and have faced criticism because of their relationship. 

Arrogance explained that she doesn’t judge or abandon her husband due to his criminal past. Instead, she focused on her work and raising their kids.

Recalling how they met, she said, “I first saw him at a barbecue, not knowing he had just been released from prison. I thought, ‘Who is that chocolate drop? I need him, I’m going to get him.’” 

They married on July 9, but shortly after, Zyion was incarcerated again for another charge on September 14, 2019, serving time for two cases.

Zyion shared his experience during the pandemic: “I actually got into prison a week before covid they shut the whole prison off no visits no nothing.” Arrogance interrupted saying” we had video visits for a year

Zyion also mentioned the support he received from his wife, saying, “My wife spent $80,000 on me during my incarceration, and that’s why people are upset.”

How he feels about negative comments from people, He added, “I wont reply If you have the time to write a comment about what is going on here whether negative or positive you are invested in it that is why all hate is you expressing love in a negative way.

Arrogance concluded saying: “People needs to be woke on to what is going on in the real world and how a lot of women and black women and um alot of black men are going through this situation a lot of judgement but alot of love as well because there are a lot of millions of people going through the same thing as me.”
