Boity Thulo is in high spirits after she attained her dream of having breast reduction surgery. The rapper got candid about her surgery on her timeline, revealing she underwent the procedure in late February as she had been experiencing lower back pains, and that having bigger breasts had also affected her outfit choices. Boity penned a note to her doctor Bruce Lelala who had been supportive throughout her journey since she went under the knife, sharing before and after footage.
“I decided to take the plunge and do a procedure that benefited me in more ways than I thought it would. A mastopexy is a breast reduction and lift. This is a post to thank Dr. Bruce not only for his incredible work but for his care and compassion throughout the healing process … from random calls of me stressing to taking out the time to go the extra mile regardless of what I felt I needed to give me peace of mind,” she wrote.

United will reportedly pay Chelsea £55m upfront for the 24-year-old, the extra £5m in add-ons is dependent on whether he wins the Premier League and or Champions League on multiple occasions.
United boss Erik ten Hag reportedly identified Mount as his primary summer target early on, with the England international deemed to be the ideal fit for his tactical system. Chelsea had taken steps to try and extend Mount’s contract beyond its 2024 expiry date, but a final agreement was never reached, and he has opted to take on a new challenge away from Stamford Bridge after buying into Ten Hag’s vision for his future at Old Trafford.
