Katie Price has been targeted by an anonymous Twitter account that is threatening to release photos of her plastic surgery procedures.

An account with the username thedarkoverlord claims to have gained access to private photos of the former glamour model undergoing cosmetic surgery, and is threatening to make the previously unseen photos public.

The anonymous user implied that they have hacked client records from London Bridge Plastic Surgery, and also targeted The Only Way Is Essex stars Frankie Essex and Chloe Sims in a series of messages posted on New Year’s Day.

“We hacked @LBPSPlasticsurg previously,” they tweeted. “Clients @FrankieEssex and @Chloe_Sims contact us before your surgery photos become public. Bad timing for you now.”

“LBPS client @KatiePrice you’re not excluded from this #hacking #cybercrime,” they continued.

Standard Online has reached out to Price's representatives for comment.

Price was criticised by her fans last year when she shared a “horrific” video of herself talking while undergoing a facelift.

The clip showed the star, who was sedated but awake, as she chatted with her plastic surgeon Frank Plovier as he pulled a flap of skin away from her cheek during the procedure.

"So here I am and I'm absolutely not in pain at all,” she said. “Even though my mouth is numb, I can’t feel a thing, it’s brilliant even though I’m talking too much.”

“So all you women out there who are afraid of being put to sleep and want your face done, this is perfect,” she continued.

Fans slammed the video as “really disturbing” and “vile,” with others voicing their concerns about the safety of the procedure.
