Bobby Norris has been forced to deny he has had ‘gender reassignment’ as he hit back at trolls on Instagram on Wednesday following his latest surgical procedure.
The former TOWIE star, 37, who has travelled abroad for an unknown operation, said in a video that he is ‘not transitioning’ and ‘love being a man’.
Bobby can be seen wearing a chin bandage while sporting a pair of dark large sunglasses as he recovered in bed.
He told fans: ‘I just want to jump on because, since I’ve been back, I’ve just been resting and recuperating and the few times that I’ve been on social media I’ve seen several comments saying that I am going through gender reassignment surgery and that I’m transitioning.
‘So I want to come on here to say it’s absolute fake news. Firstly, if I was to undergo a procedure like that I would assume that you would first get the beard off.’

Bobby continued: ‘If you’re going to go to the effort of everything else coming off, surely the beard’s coming off first. I don’t know. But I am a man, I love being a man and I’m not transitioning.’
Fans were quick to take to the comments to say it is ‘no ones business’ what surgery he has had done and others were shocked by the comments.
‘Oh my gosh Bobs where did these people get these ideas from really and you don’t need to explain yourself to anyone love you lots xxx’.
‘I guess some will speculate on what surgery you’ve had, it’s only natural – but gender reassignment? not Bobby!’
‘Lol thats so funny you are the man bobby,on anyones stories i cant believe what people come up with at times.’
‘FFS what’s wrong with people. It’s no one’s business whatever you’ve had done. Get well soon @bobbycnorris Glad you’re staying a man. You’re a handsome one. Much love’.
‘It’s no one’s business but your own! As long as you’re happy! Speedy recovery’.
‘What ever treatment or surgery you had or are thinking of having is no ones business’.

Last year, Bobby confessed he no longer recognised himself after going ‘too far’ with cosmetic procedures
Last year, Bobby confessed he no longer recognised himself after going ‘too far’ with cosmetic procedures.
The TV personality admitted he ‘fell down the rabbit hole of having fillers‘ and didn’t realise his appearance was changing noticeably.
He said on FUBAR Radio‘s Access All Areas: ‘When I fell down the rabbit hole of having fillers, I certainly didn’t realise how I looked.
‘I was getting told on social media how I looked, and I’d see photographs. The first time you get something done its light and minimal and then you’ll go for a top up.
‘So what becomes your “normal” changes as you have things done. Going back to when I started TOWIE… people were reaching out to the cast saying, “Do you want this done? Come and have it done.” So I was like, “Lovely!”‘
Bobby explained his ‘epiphany’ came when ITV aired old episodes of The Only Way Is Essex and he realised there had been a ‘big change’ in his face.
He said: ‘I was having things done gradually. I never meant to be extreme in any sense. It wasn’t until I had a bit of an epiphany.
‘In the early lockdown, ITV2 were churning out old-school TOWIE so I was looking at old-school photos. I saw myself joining the show at 24 and how I looked.
‘Every couple of hours or days when I’d flip through to the show, I could see a big change was happening, but when you’re in that you don’t know it’s happening.’
