Shilpa
Shetty
has
offered
her
condolences
to
her
one
time
rival
Jade
Goody
after
the
latter
was
diagnosed
with
cervical
cancer.
The
Big
Brother
star
had
been
appearing
on
the
Indian
version
of
the
reality
show
-
known
as
Bigg
Boss
-
when
she
was
informed
of
the
diagnosis
and
has
flown
home
to
the
UK.
And
Bollywood
actress
Shetty,
who
was
the
target
of
alleged
racism
from
Goody
when
they
both
appeared
on
Celebrity
Big
Brother
has
offered
her
support
to
her
former
housemate.
"I'd
like
to
say
on
behalf
of
the
people
of
India
that
we
wish
her
well
and
our
prayers
are
with
her," she
told
GMTV.
"It's
so
sad
for
someone
so
young
to
be
diagnosed
with
such
a
dreadful
illness
-
it's
horrible,"
Shetty
added.
Goody's
appearance
on
Bigg
Boss
had
been
billed
as
an
attempt
to
rehabilitate
her
image
after
being
accused
of
racism
towards
Shetty.
