In 2021, Amy underwent surgery to remove both her uterus and appendix due to complications related to endometriosis. Months later, she revealed she had also undergone liposuction. Sharing a swimsuit photo on Instagram in 2022, Amy admitted she had never expected to have cosmetic surgery but felt it was the right choice after years of physical struggles. “I feel good. Finally,” she wrote at the time. Later, speaking on Chelsea Handler’s podcast Dear Chelsea, Amy explained why she felt compelled to be transparent. “I just
wanted to say that, because if anybody sees me in pictures or anything and they’re like, she looks thinner, and whatever: it’s because I had a surgery,” she said. “It’s too hard, and I just want to be real about it.” The actress revealed she weighed 170 pounds after her procedures and was focused on regaining her strength.

45 and surgery?? Wow.
So she got her uterus removed and then also liposuction and then acted surprised she looks different? Not judging, just like… that’s what happens lol. Endometriosis is awful though.
I don’t get why people are acting like the swimsuit pic is some big confession. Like she should’ve known people would notice she’s thinner after surgery. Also 170 pounds sounds like she was “fine” before, so maybe the whole thing is about vanity? I’m probably missing something.
Every time I see these posts it turns into a weird debate in my head like—did the endometriosis surgery cause the weight loss or was it the liposuction? And then she’s doing transparency but half the internet still gonna be like “she’s hiding something.” Either way, hope she’s actually strong again, because surgery + recovery is no joke.
