My family is blocking my calls: Jessy
Jessy started transforming her body when she was 18. In an interview with an Austrian daily, Jessy revealed that her family has cut all ties with her. "They are blocking my calls. This is so sad as I'd love to be in touch, especially with my brother and grandfather. I keep on texting but get no replies whatsoever," The Sun quoted her as saying.
Jessy frequently posts transformation updates on Instagram
Sharing her measurements on her Instagram bio, she describes herself as a fashion model with a cup size of "2000 cc (cubic centimeters) and growing." She frequently shares her transformation posts on Instagram and one of her posts reads - "2018 vs 2021. Cannot wait for the future."

Ready to undergo more surgeries: Jessy
Jessy lives in Vienna and has undergone three breast enhancements, Yahoo News reported. As mentioned earlier, her nose, lips, and bum have also gone under the knife.

She aspires to have the most voluminous lips in the whole country.
Jessy earlier sported short dark hair, many piercings
In the "before and after" photos that she shared of herself on Instagram, Jessy was seen sporting short dark hair and many piercings before going under the knife.

She pretended to be a 'cool and solid' teen
All through her teens, she says she pretended to be "cool and solid" but was never comfortable and wasn't true to herself. Her "conservative" parents used to hand her silk scarves to cover her cleavage. Eventually, she left her parents' home at 17 to start her physical transformation. Her family's reaction has always confused her, she claims.
