Former Bachelorette Ali Oetjen has flown to the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland for what appears to be a working holiday.

She also found time for some rest and relaxation by having a picnic with friends, before taking to the sky for a scenic chopper flight.

After the beach shoot, Ali travelled to a luxury villa to take more photos while modelling a white sundress.

The influencer appears to be making content for several commercial partnerships while in the Whitsundays.

She underwent explant surgery two years ago to reduce the size of her G-cup chest.

The SAS Australia star told body+soul in August she ‘hated’ her ‘massive’ implants for years before getting them removed, adding that she experienced both health problems and social stigma.

‘I definitely wouldn’t suggest breast implants to anyone,’ she said.

‘Mine impacted on my back and stomach muscles, and to this day I still have a slouch because of the way I stood to try to hide them,’ she added.

After getting her G-cup implants removed, she had them replaced with smaller implants on the advice of her surgeon, who said she risked being left with saggy skin if she went back to her natural size.

The Bachelor alum concluded by saying she ‘hated’ the idea that other women were ‘judging’ her for the size of her breasts.   

‘Women were judging me for them, and I knew in my soul it was the wrong decision and one that didn’t make me happy,’ she said.

Ali underwent explant surgery in August 2019. 

Making a change: Ali had her implants removed in August 2019. She’d decided to get a breast enlargement in her early twenties because she thought it would please an ex-boyfriend

‘It is a personal thing but knowing I got them for the wrong reasons, I don’t want any girl to go through that same thing,’ she said. 

‘So that is why I wanted to share my story, to make sure other girls don’t make that mistake.’  

Before getting a breast reduction two years ago, Ali had spoken candidly about her cosmetic surgery regret.

‘To everyone that said my breasts are huge / too big, you hurt my feelings. To myself, I will never change my body for someone else,’ she wrote on Instagram.
