Clare Crawley From The Bachelor Opens Up About Getting Her Breast Implants Removed Due To Health Issues
Sacramento, California. Clare Crawley is everyone’s favorite runner-up from season 18 of The Bachelor. Clare also went on to star in season 16 of The Bachelorette.
One of the things we all love Clare for is her refreshing dose of honesty, and she recently opened up on Instagram about getting her breast implants removed due to health issues.
“The truth is, I’ve been going through things…medically with my body that I have not had answers to,” Clare explained in her Instagram video that she shared, after addressing the fact that she hasn’t been active on social media lately.
She said this has all been going on now for several years before admitting it has been frustrating, scary, and hard for her to not have had any answers for this long.
Clare has undergone a multitude of tests and has had a few doctors tell her they weren’t sure what was going on with her.

“Ultimately, my skin has been having like really bad hives and rash all down my stomach, on my neck, on the sides of my neck, on my arms, and my whole body is just inflamed and itchy,” Clare continued in her video.
“The worst part usually gets around my eyes. I’ve had blood test after blood test and medication after medication and antibiotic after antihistamine after Benadryl…I mean, just everything in the book.
“And that is not my only symptom, but that was the most physical one.” Clare also mentioned that the hives and rashes have been coming and then going.

Around a month ago while visiting her chiropractor, he took an x-ray and insisted that Clare should go get a mammogram.
The x-ray he took showed that behind one of Clare’s breast implants was a big pocket filled with fluid.
After getting several mammograms and ultrasounds due to some suspicious things, it turned out Clare had these sacks of fluid behind both of her implants.

Clare then said her white blood cell count has been elevated for a few years now, fighting something that her doctor couldn’t figure out.
“As much as I love my implants, um, my body is fighting them and recognizes it as something obviously foreign in my body.”
Clare then shared a conversation she had with Dale over all this. “I was talking to Dale the other day and he said, ‘Your boobs are not what make you beautiful.’ And it’s the truth.”
“…And to me, this is the ultimate love story… loving my body enough to know that this is not what makes me beautiful.”
Clare will have her implants removed, and she’s hoping that by sharing this part of her journey publicly, she can help other people who might be going through something like this so they don’t feel alone.
