Osbourne has painful bunions

The presenter Kelly Osbourne says she sympathises with Victoria Beckham – who is reportedly planning to have surgery to correct her bunions – because she also has problems with her feet, but is refusing to go under the knife to correct the deformity.

Kelly told Closer magazine: "I can totally sympathise because I've got them too! I've had them since I was 16, but they've got much worse since 'Dancing With The Stars'.

"Like Victoria, I've been advised to have an operation, but there's no way I could be in a wheelchair for six weeks. It would drive me nuts. So I'll just have to put up with the pain. It annoys me if people think they're gross - they're common and quite normal."

Bunions are deformities of the bone and joint which affect the big toe and can be extremely painful.

Victoria – who has sons Brooklyn, ten, Romeo, seven, and four-year-old Cruz with soccer star husband David Beckham - recently swapped her trademark high-heeled shoes for flip flops to reveal her misshapen feet during a family outing to Malibu.

A source said: "Victoria has spent most of her working life in towering stilettos so its little wonder her feet aren't in mint condition.”

The singer-turned-fashion designer has previously spoken about how she is happy to "suffer" in high-heeled shoes.

She said: "Absolutely, heels make my feet hurt. Absolutely! I'm not going to lie. But no pain, no gain, as they say. I don't mind. I will suffer. I don't wear heels every day, but when I'm out, that's how I feel confident."
