Eva Amurri is opening up about her breast reduction journey and the challenges she faced during recovery.
The actress, 40, revealed on her lifestyle blog Happily Eva After that she decided to reduce her size 32F breasts, which had changed significantly due to pregnancy and nursing.
In a candid blog post titled Bye, Bye, Boobies, Amurri explained that large breasts made her feel self-conscious, caused back pain, and were difficult to manage daily. She also reflected on the emotional complexity of her decision, sharing that while her curves sometimes boosted her confidence, they also became a burden she couldn’t escape.
After undergoing surgery with Dr. Umbareen Mahmood, Amurri documented her recovery on Instagram. She shared a video from her car ride home, humorously admitting to a pre-surgery “mental breakdown” and expressing gratitude for her supportive surgeon.
Despite the tough recovery, including difficulty sleeping and constant discomfort, Amurri remains positive. Comparing the sleepless nights to the newborn phase of motherhood, she admitted resting has been harder than expected but said the results are "worth it."
“The girls are looking real good," Amurri said, adding that even at 18, her body never looked this way. She credited the surgery with boosting her confidence and improving her physical comfort.
Amurri, the daughter of Susan Sarandon and Franco Amurri, shares three children with her ex-husband Kyle Martino. She married chef Ian Hock earlier this year.
