Personal Trainer
Bonnie revealed that the secret to her young and flawless skin is Botox. While other celebrities are usually shy and deny having undergone Botox treatments, the Welsh beauty openly admitted to having enhanced her face with Botox to keep her fine lines and wrinkles hidden.
Bonnie also tried acupuncture to lose weight, however, she was also following a diet at the same time so the weight loss might have been triggered due to the diet.
Bonnie admits to having adopted the Atkins diet, but she put on all the weight she had lost later when she stopped the diet. She also adopted the LighterLife diet and managed to lose weight. She also consumes LighterLife Lite soups when she is on a tour and hence does not have to worry about sticking to the diet.
Bonnie accounts her good health to ample sleep. She sleeps for about 10 hours a day.
