Christina Applegate Opens Up About the Pressure That Led to Her Only Plastic Surgery at Age 27

 

Christina Applegate has always been open about her personal struggles, including living with multiple sclerosis. Recently, she revealed on the podcast MeSsy, which she co-hosts with Jamie-Lynn Sigler, the pressure that led her to undergo plastic surgery—the only one she’s ever had.

Applegate recounted an incident from years ago when a director commented on her appearance, stating, “We had to spend a lot of money to fix that… the studio was really upset.” She disclosed that the first and only time she had plastic surgery was at 27, to remove the bags under her eyes.

She explained that a producer, a well-known figure in the industry, suggested the surgery due to difficulties lighting her eyes on set. “I was on a show, and one of the producers, [a] very famous [person] who did a very famous show as well, said, ‘Hey, we’re having a lot of trouble lighting under your eyes. The bags under your eyes are so big… I suggest you get them removed.’ And you know what? I did. At 27 years old,” Applegate said.

Applegate noted the lasting impact of such comments, emphasizing how they plant seeds of shame. She mentioned that the bags under her eyes were hereditary, a feature she shares with her father. During the conversation, Applegate and Sigler discussed the broader issue of shame and the importance of recognizing our intrinsic value, regardless of appearance.

When Applegate was 27, she was beginning her role in the series Jesse, although she did not specify which show she was referring to in the podcast. Prior to Jesse, she starred in Married… with Children from 1987 to 1997.

Christina Applegate and Daughter Sadie: Battling Health Issues Together

 

Christina Applegate’s daughter, Sadie, is battling her own health issues alongside her mom’s multiple sclerosis diagnosis. On the June 25 episode of the “MeSsy” podcast, 13-year-old Sadie revealed she has postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), a condition affecting the autonomic nervous system and heart, causing dizziness, weakness, and fainting upon standing.

Sadie described her experiences, sharing that she has fainted and felt close to passing out, especially on hot days. She was diagnosed with POTS a few months ago but had been struggling with symptoms for a long time. During 6th grade, Sadie frequently visited the school nurse due to her symptoms, but the nurses dismissed her, attributing her complaints to anxiety or attempts to skip class.

Applegate, 52, expressed guilt over not recognizing the severity of Sadie’s condition earlier. She noted that Sadie often wore layers of clothes on hot days and disliked physical education. Applegate, who shares Sadie with her husband Martyn LeNoble, admitted she initially thought Sadie’s behavior was similar to her own childhood dislike for PE.

Sadie’s diagnosis has helped her empathize with her mom’s struggles with multiple sclerosis, a condition Applegate revealed she had in 2021. Sadie mentioned that experiencing her own health issues made it easier to understand and relate to her mom’s pain and symptoms.

Applegate expressed her sadness over Sadie’s condition but also conveyed her love and support. Despite trying medication, Sadie feels it hasn’t been effective. Applegate and Sadie frequently argue about taking the medication to school due to Sadie’s fears of it being confiscated, although it has been cleared by the nurse’s office. Applegate remains hopeful and supportive, promising they will figure out a solution together.
