Jessica Rowe says she’s no longer a ‘career-obsessed perfectionist’ since turning 50 but likes Botox

Jessica Rowe has revealed that since turning 50, she has learned what is truly important in life. 

The former TV journalist, who left her role at Studio Ten in 2018, says she was once career obsessed, but now focuses on her family. 

‘Once a career-obsessed perfectionist, I’ve discovered that success is measured in the joy you hold in your heart, not your job title,’ she wrote in a column for The Sydney Morning Herald on Friday. 

‘And what brings me joy is the love I have for my girls, my husband, my family and my friends,’ she added. 

Jessica however admitted that while she’s now very comfortable with herself, she does suffer from a little vanity. 

‘I love getting older, although my vanity means I will keep indulging in sprinklings of Botox and whatever other necessary skin-deep treatments I need to keep putting my best face forward in the world,’ she added. 

In an interview with Now to Love last year, Jessica spoke openly about her love of Botox.

Describing it as ‘a wonderful way to erase my wrinkles’, Jess said she’s never tried to hide the fact she’s partial to a cosmetic jab.

 ‘I’ve always been open about that, because I think it’s disingenuous to say to other women ‘I just look like this,” she said.

Jessica said she gets the injections two or three times a year, depending on what she has on.

Jessica also opened up about her penchant for the procedure in an interview with New Idea.

‘I do use Botox and I’m open about that. I’d rather be open about it than just sort of say, ‘Oh, I just do green drinks.’ I do Botox because it makes me feel better,’ she confessed.
