Big Brother’s Nadia tries to kill herself

Sad Nad: BB's Nadia is in trouble

Portuguese Nadia, who won BB4, was taken to hospital after an overdose. Pals had fears for the star after she said: “I want to end it all.”

She was booed as she left the Ultimate Big Brother house last Friday.

Then on Wednesday evening a friend found her slumped in the bathroom of her council flat.

It is thought the 33-year-old had taken an overdose of prescription drugs and painkillers.

The worried friend told The Sun: “This is a cry for help. She is very unhappy."

Once-popular Nadia fell from favour when she slagged off BB11 winner Josie’s boyfriend John James.

NAD’S TROUBLED TIMES

She also ranted about the fact that Ulrika Jonsson was getting paid for more than her for the show.

She blasted Channel 4, saying they edited the programme to make her look like a villain.

Later, she said: "I just feel my life isn't worth living any more. I'm in the gutter and completely distraught."

A Big Brother spokeswoman said: "We have been in constant touch with Nadia and like all housemates she has access to all of our after care facilities."
