Eve Torres Opens Up About Recent Explant Surgery, Past Health Issues

Eve Torres opens up about a recent surgery she underwent.

After more than a decade of unexplained health issues, Eve Torres finally got to the root cause. In a recent post on her Instagram, the three-time WWE Divas Champion shared an update on her health. As it turns out, the root cause stems back to her WWE days.

Back in 2009, when she was an active professional wrestler, Torres opted to get breast implants. In the years following, she began developing various health concerns, including psoriasis, disruptive gut, digestive issues, brain fog and anxiety. As a former gymnast and wrestler, Torres said she conditioned herself to reject these signals from her body. “If I just pushed through the pain, or worked a little harder, the next big thing would be on the other side for me. If I rested, I would lose to those who weren’t resting,” Torres explained.

By 2020, though, Torres couldn’t ignore the pain anymore. “I finally started to get testing done to confirm the root of these concerns,” she wrote. “While it was clear they were all symptoms indicating auto-immune issues, and I worked through several protocols to identify and address the issues, I did not get to any concrete answers or solutions.”

Torres then noted she had heard about Breast Implant Illness but didn’t want to believe that may be a contributor to her health issues. Despite some initial hesitation, Torres finally decided to schedule an explant operation in an attempt to better her future, and health.

The former WWE Diva is now one-week post-surgery and had her drains and sutures removed yesterday. Torres admitted she’s experiencing some pain and discomfort right now, but she remains optimistic in her recovery.
