Megan McKenna turned heads at her birthday party on Saturday night, as she showed off a dramatic new look that appeared to pay homage to a reality TV queen.
The former The Only Way is Essex star celebrated her 29th birthday in true Kim Kardashian style, in a black skin-tight, ruched maxi dress with black towering slip-on stilettos.
She accessorized with a pair of minimalist black shades.
The most obvious nod to her KUWTK inspiration came from the hair on Megan’s head however, with the birthday girl sporting a lengthy blonde braid that reached all the way down her back.
With shades of Kim’s 75-inch, $10,000 (£7,317) ponytail from the 2021 Met Gala, Megan acknowledged the similarity by captioning the photo drop of her look on Instagram ‘Kimye’.
It also made quite a departure from her previous look, with Megan wearing her hair up (naturally) but much shorter and darker in tone for Celebrity MasterChef, where she narrowly lost out to Paralympian Kadeena Cox in the final.
Who is Megan McKenna’s boyfriend Josh Riley?
The star marked her birthday with dinner at Sexy Fish restaurant in London with her boyfriend, Josh Riley, and her sister Milly.
Megan’s boyfriend is the 26-year-old director of luxury men’s fashion company Yelir World.
The pair first spent time together in summer 2020, before reportedly splitting, only to rekindle their relationship in February.
The businessman likes to fly under the radar and takes to blurring his face on photographs he shares on social media, with Megan also making sure to obscure his face through various inventive means, such as artful angles or carefully placed emojis on Instagram.
X Factor: Celebrity winner Megan has previously discussed struggling with body dysmorphia after she ‘became obsessed with my lips’.
In an interview with The Sun, she recalled: ‘I’d take a photo of myself and if I didn’t think they looked big enough I’d make them bigger with an editing app.
‘Honestly, I think I had body dysmorphia because when I look back at pictures of myself now I am horrified. I look like a duck.’
She has since had her lip filler dissolved.
