Absolutely tragic news - Big Brother UK (and Canada) star Nikki Grahame has died aged 38.
Oh that is lovely, and great photos too.Tim Dormer has also paid tribute.
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 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.
