Peggy Sulahian — who became Bravo’s 100th housewife after joining the O.C. franchise’s current season — went under the knife in her late teens because she felt insecure about her 'pronounced Armenian nose' according to a source close to the reality star.

The source revealed: 'The official reason was a deviated septum, but Peggy was desperate to get her nose fixed for cosmetic reasons too.'

The source revealed that the Kuwait-born reality TV star had the procedure done over a long holiday weekend because her strict Armenian parents Ani and Vartkes would not allow her to take any days off school.

The insider revealed the nose job was performed at Glendale Memorial Hospital by Peggy’s plastic surgeon cousin Dr Vatche Bardakjian, very early into his career.

The mother of three, now 44, had her nose job at the same time as her older celebrity fashion designer brother, Pol' Atteu, 51, who starred in Bravo show Interior Therapy With Jeff Lewis.

The insider said: 'She hated [her nose] and thought it made her look ugly. She was often teased about her nose and "monobrow" at school and as she got into her later teens she got more and more obsessed about the way she looked.'

'The only reason her parents agreed to it was on medical grounds. They paid for half of the cost and health insurance paid out the other half.'

The source added: 'Peggy and Pol’ were some of Dr Bardakjian’s very first patients too, but he did a great job and Peggy was delighted with the results.'

Peggy was married in her early twenties to Diko Sulahian, who runs a successful custom car wheels business for luxury cars. Tragically, Peggy’s mother Ani died from breast cancer aged just 51 in January 1995, just six month before the wedding.

Following her mother’s death and with her marriage to Diko, Peggy drifted from her family and had less contact with her brothers Abraham, 56, and Pol’, 51, who owns a couture boutique in Beverly Hills and was formerly a personal designer to the late Anna Nicole Smith, making regular appearances on her E! reality show.

The insider revealed: 'Pol’ used to design clothes for his sister for special occasions. He did dresses for her school prom, high school graduation and special family events.'

'He groomed her into a trophy wife for Diko and was with her each step of the way - from getting a nose job with her, to dressing her up to look a million dollars.'

Another insider close to the family revealed that the surgery didn’t stop with the nose job. Peggy — who has two daughters, Giovanna, 19, and Gianelle, 17, and a son, Koko, nine — also had a boob job a few years after the birth of Gianelle.

'She’d had two kids and just hit her 30s and felt self conscious,' the source revealed.

Recently Peggy made the difficult decision to have a double mastectomy after doctors found a lump in her breast.

On RHOC, Peggy left her fellow housewives cast members perplexed as to whether the procedure was a preventative measure or whether she was actually diagnosed with breast cancer.

Peggy initially suggested to co-star Shannon Beador that the lump was not cancerous, but later told cast members that doctors found '3 millimeters of cancer' in her breast.

The newest addition to The Real Housewives Of Orange County might not be long for the show, according to RadarOnline.

According to a source, the other castmates have decided to band together to get Sulahian kicked off the show.

'The other women cannot stand Peggy. She has started so many fights that were just outrageous and unnecessary,' an insider close to the production told the site.

Not that Peggy is enjoying the experience any more than they are. She recently told ET of her time on the show so far: 'One percent of the time I enjoyed it. The other 99, I was trying to figure it out.'
