I am just stunned, and so very sad. Not what I expected to see this morning.

Oh that's incredibly sad, she was the absolute star of her season. I still have little sound files I grabbed from her season of her, Pete and others, which I used as Windows system event sounds. My computer would randomly complain "It's driving me barmy - it's driving me absolutely barmy!"
But right now "I'm feeling very upset".
RIP Nikki.
But right now "I'm feeling very upset".

Wow I am truely devastated and completely shocked. This is so disheartening for the big brother community and her family especially. Anorexia is truly horrible and it is completely devastating and unfair that this has happened to someone so young and legendary as Nikki Grahame
May she Rest In Peace and be forever remembered.

Still hard to believe she’s gone, to be honest.
Same, she's been on my mind today as well. Incredibly sad that her condition got to the extreme stage it did. She was obviously beyond help.Still hard to believe she’s gone, to be honest.

Agreed. I was watching some of her old BBUK/CAN clips on YouTube over the weekend and it doesn’t feel real.Still hard to believe she’s gone, to be honest.

I can’t imagine there wasn’t something that could have been done much sooner. I don’t think we should speculate too much as we have no idea what help she was getting prior to the GoFundMe campaign. However I can’t help but feel that had it happened sooner she’d have recovered.She was obviously beyond help.

I don’t think her impressions ever made it to the show but her impression of Raul has to be one of my all time favourites...
I wish I could find the full version of this as they also do an impression of his eviction...
Her Maddy and Cassandra are also pretty spot on too...

I assume she is the first housemate to feature on the Canadian version to die.

Our hearts break for the loss of Nikki Grahame. Nikki will forever be a beloved part of the Big Brother family. Rest in peace.

I won’t be surprised if a network in the UK commissions a tribute documentary soon, similar to the one made for Jade Goody, celebrating Nikki. I imagine it could also serve as an awareness for the effects of a condition like anorexia, too.BB Canada now added a tribute gallery to their website and will pay tribute to her on the show.
