Recently in an interview, Erin talked about her character in the upcoming season 4 of “The Boys”.

Though she could not divulge much, there was much anticipation in her voice – she exclaimed that Starlight was “adjusting great” as she pushed ahead in the fight. In Season 3 of this series, viewers saw how Starlight was assisting the Boys in their quest to kill their terrifying enemy Homelander; it left them wanting for more, with a plot that kept them on the edge.
Fans of “The Boys” are eagerly waiting for the fourth season to drop, but there is no concrete news about its official release date. As per sources, a major portion of the editing is completed; a lot of things are happening behind the scenes in season 4.
Has She Undergone Plastic Surgery?
After the launch of the teaser of Season 3 of “The Boys”, what struck the audience the most was the fact that Erin Moriarty, aka Starlight, looked markedly different compared to the first two seasons. Fans and followers noticed that there were some striking changes in her appearance, and that is how rumors about her plastic surgery began to circulate.
Her face looks strikingly thin in her recent photos, with a sharp jawline, and her cheeks look as if they have shrunk within. Fans, as surprised as they are with the change in her appearance, were quick to conclude that Erin Moriarty had certainly been under the knife to cosmetically enhance her facial features. They even spotted that her upper eyelids seemed to have hollowed in and her cheekbones looked well-contoured, lending a much-refined touch to her face.
Some people believe that her nose also looks different, so she must also have opted for a nose job, while many others have commented about a possible lip job too, looking at her fuller lips. Some social media users have commented that her hollowed-in cheeks might be a result of the removal of buccal fat, which she might have gone for to attain a chiseled look.
However, none of these comments or conjectures have received any reaction or response from Erin, and are also not backed by any demonstrable data.
Her Recent Weight Loss
While most people are speculating on plastic surgery for the change in her appearance, many others have attributed it to her dramatic weight loss. Erin Moriarty has indeed lost weight intensely over the last few years, along with the fact that she has also advanced in age. These two factors can also change her facial bone structure, as some of her fans have pointed out.
Her weight loss also triggered rave rumors across the internet, with people suspecting extreme diet plans, and plastic surgery responsible for it. However, her stunningly toned physique is only a result of utter dedication towards staying fit, a healthy lifestyle, and sheer intention of self-improvement.
In one of her interviews, Moriarty talked about how she avoided unhealthy food choices and embraced a healthier lifestyle. Her current diet includes a nutrient-rich, balanced diet that includes, fresh veggies and fruits, and lots of protein. She works out regularly, practices aerobics, and goes running every day.
