Katie Price ex-boyfriend Dane Bowers looked unrecognisable as he showed off his new veneers days after having a hair transplant.
The Another Level singer, who famously had a high-profile romance with glamour model Katie Price, took to Instagram to reveal he’s jetted to Turkey for another procedure.
In a series of videos uploaded to Instagram Stories, Dane showed the moment he had his lower teeth filed down, leaving him with tiny little stubs and bloody gums.
He also confessed that he was struggling with a swollen face as a side-effect of his hair transplant, forcing him to wear sunglasses.
‘You can’t laugh about these things. I can’t talk… I look like a baddie in a Marvel movie,’ he said.
‘I can just about talk now that the anaesthesia is slowly wearing off. I’ve got these fake teeth in for now, and I go back tomorrow to have the crowns fitted.’
He added: ‘I’ve had more messages on these Stories than anything ever. People are asking me, ”Why would I share this? Am I not embarrassed?” Not at all.’
He continued: ‘My vanity is never that important. I don’t mind people seeing me at my worst, and I am most definitely at my worst right now.
‘It’s a procedure I wanted, and I know I’m going to be happy with the results. It’s all good, really.’
Dane also underwent a hair transplant, which caused significant facial swelling
As well as being a member of R&B boy band Another Level, Dane also dated TV personality Katie, 46, between 1998 and 2000 but after their split she insisted he was the man who had broken her heart the worst.
‘I’ve been hurt before,’ she said in 2011 on her reality TV show.
‘I’ve been heartbroken badly, when I split from Dane. He was the only guy who completely taught me about having your heart broken. I’ve always said that Dane’s the one who did that.’
‘Because of Dane, he’s made me have my barriers up, even with Pete (Andre),’ she added.
‘Since splitting with him, I have never let my barriers 100 per cent down with anyone. Being heartbroken, that hurt. It’s not a nice feeling.’
Dane was also in a relationship with Love Island 2018 finalist Laura Andersonwith sources claiming at the time the pair were ‘not right for each other.’
‘Laura is the latest star to sign up for Celebs Go Dating – and she’s only been single for a matter of hours,’ they told The Sun.
‘Laura and Dane made their break up public on Thursday and by the Friday she was telling people she had signed up to Celebs Go Dating.’
Dane began Laura again in May 2021, reconciling after they briefly dated in 2018.
She ended their romance after discovering he was allegedly unfaithful.
‘Laura was devastated when she found out Dane was cheating on her but years have passed and she’s now willing to give him another chance,’ a source told MailOnline at the time.
