Surgery addict Transgeder spends $75k -'perfect female body'
Transgender surgery addict spends £52,000 on four boob jobs, two rounds of lipo and 150 face fillers to have 'the perfect female body' - and says her wife is standing by her
- Fulvia Pellegrino from Peveragno in Italy came out as transgender in 2000
- The 56-year-old says she knew at 15-years-old that she was living a lie
- Since telling wife Marisa, she's had multiple procedures costing £52,000
- Operations include four breast augmentations and 150 lip and cheek fillers
- The couple now live as 'sisters' but have been ostracised in their town
After realising she was transgender as a teen, Fulvia spent 40 years hiding it for fear of what her religious, strict family would say

A transgender woman from Italy who hid her desire to change sex for 40 years says she's spent £52,000 trying to achieve the perfect female body since coming out.
Fulvia Pellegrino, 56, from the small town of Peveragno, has undergone a series of gruelling procedures to achieve her current look including more than 150 lip and cheekbone fillers, four breast implants and two rounds of liposuction.
Pellegrino, who was born with the name Fulvio and has the full support of her wife Marisa, has also spent nearly £9,000 on surgery on her bottom and is now planning even more.

Fulvia Pellegrino, 56, from Peveragno in Italy has spent the last 16 years transforming her body. While she still has male genitals, she has spent around £52,000 on breast and bottom augmentation, liposuction and lip and cheek fillers
Quote:
Marisa admits that while she's standing by her husband, the pair are now more like sisters than a married couple.
Fulvia said: 'I am not happy with my 'perfect' body, because it is not perfect. Perfection is something else.'
Fulvia was just fifteen years old when she first realised she was transgender but fearful of her strict religious family, and her father who was in the clergy, Fulvia kept her feelings a secret.

Fulvia still lives with her wife Marisa, left, although the pair say any sexual attraction between them has gone
Quote:
She said: 'Obviously Marisa lost if for a moment, it is not something that is easy to accept. Today Marisa and I are nothing more than two sisters. We live together, we argue like two normal people but not like husband and wife.'
When Fulvia began her transition by receiving hormone therapy and looking into plastic surgery, Marisa visited a psychologist to help her come to terms with her new life.
Fulvia's parents were less accepting and refused to accept her in her new form.
Despite her family's turmoil, Fulvia began to pursue her extreme look with breast implants, a nose job and a face lift in 2004.

As Fulvia was: The 56-year-old says that she's known her true identity since she was 15 years old but was too afraid to come out. Fulvia instead focused on being more traditionally masculine, 'firing guns and driving 4x4s'
Quote:
Three more breast augmentations were followed by liposuction, numerous fillers in her cheeks and lips and a £22,000 butt lift.
But Fulvia, who used to run a restaurant but no longer works, struggled financially. She sold her guns, cars and a house in France to pay for her expensive surgeries.
Now the pair struggle on Marisa's wage as a holistic therapist. And while Marisa is happy to support Fulvia's quest to achieve her desired look, inhabitants in their town of Peveragno have gone out of their way to exclude the couple.
But despite the difficulty she faces Fulvia is desperate to continue her plastic surgery. She said: 'I want to look like Allanah Starr, an American transgender **** star.
'Plastic surgery is not a drug but its something that people like me need.
'I am not happy with my face and other parts of my body.
'I won't stop here, I want to go ahead because it's not perfect. If I reach perfection maybe I will stop.
