Geraldine Hickey: A Weight Off My Chest

Part of Replay Festival

Thursday 23 July, 6:00pm

I had breast reduction surgery, but they took them all. I didn’t want them, they were big and heavy and I wanted it to be easier to find clothes that would fit.

I wanted to be ready to evacuate in the middle of the night and not think I would die in a fire with one arm stuck in a bra strap. I wanted to believe in the possibility of doing a handstand…without hitting myself in the face.

Geraldine Hickey is a regular on our screens, appearing on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, Spicks & Specks, The Cheap Seats and Have You Been Paying Attention?
