“I didn’t realize at the time, but after having (my second child) Ryan, I was battling a bit of postpartum that lingered for a while…It came in the form of me being depressed about my body. So I made a rash decision,” she told the magazine.

“The intention was just to have them lifted, but I came out with these bigger boobs I didn’t want. I got the most botched boob job on the face of the planet…They’re worse now than they were before. I would never do anything like that again, but I’m an advocate of if something makes you happy, who cares about the judgement?”

The 30-year-old has been open about prioritizing her mental health and revealed to Jada Pinkett Smith that she takes medication for anxiety during a recent appearance on Red Table Talk.
