Anton Danyluk has hit back at claims he’s had work done on his face.
The 25-year-old, who appeared on Love Island back in 2019, took to Instagram earlier this week ahead of the launch of his new book.
The Scottish star, who has since disabled the comments on his post, was accused of going under the knife by his followers – who said he looked “barely recognisable”.

Addressing the cosmetic surgery speculation on Fubar Radio, Anton said: “Recently, I’ve been getting a lot of hate and it’s a lot to do with my face. A lot of people are accusing me of having work done to my face.”
“I genuinely haven’t had work done to my face. I’m honest, I will say if I have, I don’t care. If I want to have work done to my face, it’s my face, it’s my body… And if that makes me feel good about myself and I want to do that, good.”
“It’s my life, I can do what I want. If you want to go out and drink every night and that makes you feel good about yourself, go do that. If you want to go to the gym, you go do that, that’s your life.”

Explaining his decision to disable comments on his post, Anton said: “It’s not our business what other people think of us, and we can’t control what other people think of us. That’s it.”
“I can go to my Instagram and I can say, ‘guys, I’ve not had this work done to my face,’ But they’re either going to believe it or not going to believe it, I can’t change their opinion on that and that is ultimately what they think. So why waste the energy?”
“All I do now is simply delete the comment and block the person. Remove it, it’s that simple, it’s gone, forget about it. That person does not impact my life.”
“I’ve been bullied as a kid,” Anton revealed. “I was a fat kid at school. I got it all the time, so I’m thick skinned now. It would take something drastic to bother me.”
“Yeah I have my good days, yeah I have my bad days, I’m not perfect. We all do. But at the same time, I think I’ve just learned to love myself and I am who I am.”
“You’ll like me or you don’t like me. And if everyone can just have that attitude, then you know, you are going to be on the steps to living your best life.”
Anton’s book ’50 Steps to the Best Version of Yourself’ is available to buy now.
