Big Brother winner Josie Gibson proved she really is the caring, bubbly girl the nation fell in love with when she arrived in Scotland to surprise her biggest fan: dog attack victim Rhianna Kidd.

10 year old Rhianna was attacked by two Rottweilers, 11 days ago, in Dundee. The youngster was so badly injured, she now struggles to talk or smile.

It has been a horrific ordeal for the brave little girl and her family but she was overjoyed to see her hero Josie appear in the hospital ward.

The Sun arranged the visit and Josie was only to willing to oblige, telling the paper it "was better than winning the hundred grand".

She said: "When I heard Rhianna wanted to see me it was brilliant. She's been so brave.

"I have a sister the same age and it breaks my heart thinking about what happened."

Rihanna spoke through her pain, recalling the moment the dogs chased her. She told Josie: "I pedalled my bike really fast. They were growling at me."

Josie cheered Rhianna up by presenting her with an engraved i-pod that read: "To my brave girl Rhianna. Lots of love Josie x."

The Bristol lass spent two hours at the hospital, and even though she quit Ultimate Big Brother, she will always be the Ultimate housemate in Rhianna’s eyes.
