Shilpa Shetty to fly to Britain to comfort Jade Goody

Race row pair united over mum-of-two’s cancer

Shilpa Shetty and Jade Goody have made up following their Celebrity Big Brother fight

Shilpa Shetty is expected to fly to England this week to comfort Celebrity Big Brother co-star Jade Goody.

The Bollywood actress is very concerned about her former adversary, who is battling cervical cancer.

‘What happened in the past means nothing compared to what Jade is going through today,’ Shilpa tells The People.

‘You wouldn’t wish this on your worst enemy.’

Shilpa, 33, who won the series after a race row erupted over Jade’s behaviour towards her, admits she's not sure what she'll say when they come face-to-face again.

‘Perhaps a long hug can convey something far more than words,’ she says.

‘I’ve been praying for Jade every night and she is always in my thoughts.’

Jade, 27, was told she had cancer on Shilpa’s Indian version of Big Brother last year.
