Linda Evangelista had gained a lot of weight following a botched procedure to lose body fat. However, she has now revealed that she has undergone weight loss and is ready to return to the modeling world.
The supermodel was born on May 10, 1965, in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. After moving to Los Angeles, California, she signed with Elite Model Management in 1984.
Evangelista had her hair cut short in 1988 upon the suggestion of photographer Peter Lindbergh. The haircut was very successful in her career and went on to be known as “The Linda.” In 2008, she was voted as “The Greatest Supermodel of All Time” by the viewers of the television show Fashion File.
Linda Evangelista’s Weight Loss Journey And Reason
Linda Evangelista has embarked on a weight loss journey following a failed fat removal procedure that bulked her.
On July 16, the supermodel posted a gorgeous photo of herself on Instagram for Fendi’s special fashion show in New York City to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Fendi Baguette. It marks her first modeling picture in five years.
After gaining a lot of weight due to the botched procedure that left her disfigured, Linda has basically been in the closet and has refused to model for more than five years.
Finally, the 57-year-old Evangelista is set to make her long-awaited return to the scene. The return of the Canadian supermodel after a long gap has been met with overwhelming responses and great anticipation for the upcoming fashion show on September 9, 2022.
Evangelista posted an update on July 20 that she has settled the CoolSculpting case and looks forward to the next chapter in her life with friends and family. She also thanked everyone for the overwhelming support.
What Happened To Linda Evangelista? CoolSculpting Fail
On an Instagram post in September 2021, Linda Evangelista wrote that the fat freezing by Zeltiq’s CoolSculpting procedure did the opposite of what was promised. Instead of decreasing the fat cells, it increased and left her permanently deformed.
The Canadian supermodel claimed that she had been left unrecognizable even after undergoing two unsuccessful corrective surgeries.
The 57-year-old said that she had initiated legal action against CoolSculpting’s owner, Zeltiq Aesthetics, which itself is a subsidiary of Allergan. She sought $50 million in damages for emotional distress and lost income.
The CoolSculpting procedure is FDA-cleared for the treatment of visible fat bulges in the submental area, abdomen, thigh, flank, along with bra fat, and back fat, underneath the buttocks, and upper arm.
