Chris Eubank Splashes £31,000 on Cosmetic Surgery to Cure Lisp
Boxing champion Chris Eubank has spent £31,000 on dental work to lose his comical lisp.
Eubank has revealed his new voice to after receiving treatment on his teeth and the gap between them that gave him his speech impediment.
Eubank, 43, said: “Officially, the lisp has gone. However, I now have a whistle. I’ve jumped out of the frying pan into the fire.
“I certainly wasn’t expecting it. Everyone thinks it’s hilarious. But at least I prefer the whistle to the lisp.”
The former World Super-Middleweight Champion had the work done at the Dublin surgery of top cosmetic dentist Barry Buckley.
Eubank was fitted with 28 porcelain crowns and closed the gap responsible for the lisp that has been with the boxer his whole life.
Chris added: “As soon as the anaesthetic wore off I was talking to the dentist and I could hear the whistling. It was funny – but not as funny as the lisp.”
Eubank, who retired from the ring 11 years ago, is hoping the newly acquired whistle will go ounce he is used to his new teeth.
Chris, who now lives in a Hotel and battling back from bankruptcy hopes the new teeth will lure his ex-wife Karron back.
He added: “I hope Karron likes them because maybe I will be able to win her back. We’ll see. It’s one of the reasons I did it.”
Chris married Karron, mother of four of his children, in 1990, however they are now divorced due to Eubanks add behaviour.
