Reality TV star Jade Goody has been told she has early-stage cervical cancer, her publicist has confirmed.
The 27-year-old was told the news by a doctor while she was appearing on the Indian version of Big Brother, which is called Bigg Boss.
Her publicist Max Clifford said: “She’s very upset and frightened as you can imagine.
“The most important thing is to get Jade back and get her with the right people so they can take care of her.”

Former pop star Gary Glitter (Real name Paul Gadd) has refused to board a flight to the UK, saying he was having a heart attack.
Glitter, 64, had arrived at Bangkok in Thailand, where he was to change planes and fly back to the UK. But he refused to leave the airport, demanding to be allowed to stay in Thailand or another Asian country. Thai immigration threatened to return him to Vietnam.
Glitter has been refused entry to Thailand, despite a plea for medical treatment there. A BBC correspondent said Glitter was stuck at the airport, unwilling to face the reception in the UK, but unable to go anywhere else.

Children’s TV classic The Banana Splits is coming back to TV.
Fleegle, Bingo, Drooper and Snorky are to star in a new show and music videos on the Cartoon Network in the US, and its website, from September.
“Everything that made The Banana Splits popular in the ’60s is back, including the group’s terrific humour and music,” said Jordan Sollitto, of Warner Bros.
The Banana Splits came onto the scene in 1968 as hosts of The Banana Splits Adventure Hour, a show created by Hanna-Barbera that featured comedy and music videos.
They are a costumed rock band made up of Fleegle (a dog), Drooper (a lion), Bingo (a gorilla) and Snorky (an elephant) who hang out in their Banana Pad while playing music and telling jokes. The show’s theme song, The Tra La La Song, quickly became a classic. The new shorts share the same “groovy” look of the original TV series.
