Former Big Brother Naija housemate Dorathy Bachor has officially begun the process for breast reduction surgery, marking a significant personal milestone three years after she first considered the procedure. The reality television personality announced the development on her X account on Wednesday, confirming that she has attended a medical consultation to prepare for the operation.
In her public statement, Bachor reflected on the lengthy decision-making process, acknowledging the emotional weight of the choice. “Finally got that breast reduction consultation. After three years of procrastinating, I’m finally facing my fears,” she wrote. She expressed optimism about the future, adding, “Looking ahead to 2027. New year, new me.”
Bachor gained widespread popularity during her appearance on the Nigerian reality show, where her physical appearance, specifically her bust size, drew considerable attention from viewers. While the public focus was often on her looks, she has previously disclosed the practical difficulties she faced in her daily life, particularly the challenge of finding bras that fit her properly.
These personal struggles directly inspired her entrepreneurial ventures. In 2021, she launched her lingerie business, My Full Chest, a move she explained was driven by the limited availability of her specific bra size. She noted that shopping for suitable undergarments was often both difficult and expensive, frequently forcing her to purchase only two items at a time due to the high cost and scarcity of replacements.
The establishment of My Full Chest was intended to address the specific needs of women facing similar sizing challenges while also creating a sustainable commercial venture. Bachor’s recent announcement of her surgery plans follows this period of business growth and public advocacy for better representation and availability in the lingerie market.
