Tal Gilboa Opens Up About Cosmetic Procedures and Weight Loss at 48

Tal Gilboa, winner of Israel's "Big Brother" 12 years ago, has undergone significant personal changes, including her appearance, activism, and public roles. Now 48, Gilboa remains an animal rights activist and serves as the Prime Minister's advisor on animal affairs. She is also a right-wing activist close to Prime Minister Netanyahu and a regular panelist on Channel 14.

In a recent Instagram video, Gilboa addressed public speculation and criticism about her altered looks, openly confirming she has had Botox treatments on her forehead and around her eyes, lip fillers, and dental veneers. She explained, "At age 48, I'm not sure I want my original face." She also revealed a 27-kilogram weight loss, which she attributed to injections rather than diet or exercise. This followed a difficult period during the war when she gained 23 kilograms in three months while coping with her nephew Guy Gilboa Dalal's kidnapping.

Gilboa also shared her new fashion style, favoring brands like TEMU, Shein, and second-hand clothing. Responding to harsh online comments, especially from left-wing critics, she thanked them for increasing her profile and announced plans to unblock many followers on social media. She concluded by inviting recommendations for a plastic surgeon skilled in tummy tucks, signaling potential future cosmetic procedures.
