So so sad. She was very much loved by her friends and family. Its such a cruel disease.

I loved her on big brother, she was brilliantly entertaining and made the show fun back before the show was ruined by wannabe zelebs

FlyingBurrito · 10/04/2021 18:05

That is sad but not quite a shock as the articles about her in the last couple of weeks were heavily hinting she had little time left I thought.

Eating disorders are so difficult

Cactus1982 · 10/04/2021 18:05

@BrownEyedGirl80

I read that her health had deteriorated as the gyms were closed and she hated eating if couldn't exercise.Poor woman.
Oh my God that’s awful.
Thesearmsofmine · 10/04/2021 18:05

That’s very sad, she battled with eating disorders for such a long time way before big brother and the last photos I saw of her she looked so poorly.

FionnulaTheCooler · 10/04/2021 18:06

That's tragic, she was so young.

PatsyJStone · 10/04/2021 18:06

There were some pictures on the fundraising page and she was clearly extremely unwell, thin wouldn’t describe her, sadly it was too late.

StrictlyAFemaleFemale · 10/04/2021 18:06

Omg! Big brother's love story! That is very sad.

Pebbledashery · 10/04/2021 18:07

God that's hugely sad :( what an awful week, Prince Phillip, Dmx, Nikki and Ashley Cains daughter also and the sadness of her life.. I actually feel like crying 😢😢

Kanaloa · 10/04/2021 18:07

How tragic, and she was so so young as well. Shame that the producers of all these reality shows are more interested in exploiting people than helping them. She seemed like such a sweet person, I always thought she came across quite child like.

JeanClaudeVanDammit · 10/04/2021 18:08

That poor woman. She’d really suffered with anorexia for years. Her poor family.

Notaroadrunner · 10/04/2021 18:09

The poor girl. RIP Nicki.

BrownEyedGirl80 · 10/04/2021 18:09

@Cactus1982 I know I didn't think of "non essential" places impacting people like her til I read that

SimonJT · 10/04/2021 18:10

This also highlights how poorly those with eating disorders are treated, treatment is largely very poor quality and heavily rationed. No one should have to fund raise to pay for life saving medical care, especially when that illness has such a high fatality rate.

It’s messing with a lot of people’s mental health not being able to exercise properly.

Foolintherain · 10/04/2021 18:12

That's so sad.

Quaagars · 10/04/2021 18:12

Saw her name trending on Twitter, didn't click though as assumed it'd be Big Brother related or something celeb trivia!
Didn't know she'd been struggling, how awful Sad
RIP

Krook · 10/04/2021 18:12

Tragic. Anorexia is a terrible illness. Poor Nikki.

nannybeach · 10/04/2021 18:12

Who is Nicky Graham?

HeadNorth · 10/04/2021 18:12

That is so sad. As a someone (there will be many of us) with a family member with this dreadful disease it is far more upsetting than the death of an elderly man. So much energy and life, but so unwell.

roundtable · 10/04/2021 18:12

How awful, that's so tragic.

Thoughts with her family, it must have been so dreadful.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 10/04/2021 18:13

Oh no. That’s no age. Her poor family Sad

BlueTiles · 10/04/2021 18:13

@nannybeach

Who is Nicky Graham?
Would you like a lesson in googling?

Did you mean to type that into your Google search box?

Cam2020 · 10/04/2021 18:14

Poor Nikki, eating disorders are incredibly dangerous, big brother didn’t help she should never have been allowed on it.

Completely agree.

proopher · 10/04/2021 18:14

I agree that she should never have been on Big Brother, she was exploited. The memes etc that have stemmed from her behaviour on there have always left me feeling uncomfortable.

What an awful shame. I hope she's at peace now.
