When asked whether she would ever consider going under the knife, Kylie responded: ‘Oh boy. Never say never… but I would be really frightened of how surgery would turn out. 

‘I don’t even like getting items custom made such as dresses because I like to try before I buy. I feel this would be the same for my face. What happens if you hate the result?’  

She went on to reveal how she’s debated fixing her short-sightedness with laser eye surgery, but is too nervous, joking: ‘You’re stuck looking at this mug. Sorry.’

Kylie spoke about ageing in an interview with WHO magazine in September last year.

‘Here’s the thing, I don’t walk around stressing over whether I’m about to get another wrinkle,’ she said.

‘I’m at a stage in my life where I feel quite comfortable in my own skin. For every extra line or crow’s foot… guess what? It comes with a bonus offer… of extra knowledge, empathy, wisdom.’
