The mum-of-five was rushed to hospital hours after the Brazilian Bum Lift at Studio 23 clinic in Gloucester and died in the early hours of Tuesday.
Parke, who once branded himself the UK's "Lip King" after going under the knife 50 times, has previously appeared on the US reality TV show Botched.
He today told : "I can't talk to anybody. I was arrested but I've been released."
Parke has a private Instagram profile with a link to another page called The Lip King Aesthetics.

He has also appeared on TV to discuss his obsession on This Morning and Channel 4 Bodyshockers.
Parke once said: "Plastic surgery is like sex. You can't have it once. You have to have it over and over."
As well as nose jobs, he is understood to have had upper eyelid surgery, a lip lift, a chin implant and several rounds of liposuction.
In 2016, ahead of his third nose job, Jordan revealed he had spent more than £130,000 on surgery over six years.

He explained his obsession with "celebrity plastic surgery" started when he was a child.
Jordan added: "People will shout at me in the street, 'There's Kim Kardashian.'
The Studio 23 clinic in Gloucester is owned and run by Jemma Pawlyszyn.
Meanwhile, Alice’s partner Dane Knight, 38, of Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire, thanked people online for their kind words following the tragedy.
Posting on Facebook, he said: "Want to say a heart felt thank you to all family and friends that were here for us at our time of need, including all of the kind messages sent to my children and myself.
"There was some very beautiful messages sent by some of your children that formed a start of a smile from the corner of my kids mouth.
"I feel this is important saying this as I will not accept speculations from adults being accidentally being eavesdropped by children and unnecessary questions raised to the 5 girls.
"So be extremely careful on what you say and who's around! My children are extremely vulnerable!"
Campaigner Ashton Collins said: "We warned the Government nine months ago deaths were likely unless there was intervention."
It is understood two people have been arrested over the tragedy.
