Celebrity blogger Linda Ikeji has finally addressed long-running speculation about whether she has undergone facial plastic surgery, after a birthday video filmed on Banana Island in Lagos went viral on 19 September 2026.

In it, Susan Chanel turned the camera directly onto Linda's face and commented on how striking she looked, prompting the key question: had she had work done?
Linda immediately shut down the suggestion, denying any surgical alteration to her face. The birthday setting made the moment all the more candid, catching the blogger off-guard in a relaxed environment rather than a staged press appearance.
Laura Ikeji Steals the Show
The video did not stop at Linda. After addressing the surgery question, Susan Chanel swung over to Linda's sister, Laura Ikeji, and posed a cheeky follow-up question, asking why Laura did not share her sister's facial features.
