India Bans Sick Jade
CELEBRITY Big Brother bully Jade Goody is banned from India – because she is suffering from a mental illness.
Immigration officials worried by her behaviour decided to reconsider her visa application to visit their country.
Gobby Jade, 25, was still being treated for depression and “anger management issues” in The Priory clinic yesterday in the wake of her eviction from the show amid a racism storm.
And she has been told her planned visit to the sub-continent is off for the foreseeable future .
Jade had hoped to meet the Indian people and apologise for her rants at CBB winner Shilpa Shetty – but immigration officials confirmed yesterday that they would not grant a visitor’s visa to anyone they believed was suffering from any form of mental illness or disorder.
They were concerned she might even blow her top on the nine-hour flight from London.
An official in the visa department of the Indian High Commission in London told the Daily Star yesterday: “If a person appears to be so mentally unstable, depressed or so angry that he or she is likely to pose a danger to themselves or other citizens in our country, then that is taken into account. A visa will be denied.”
Other sources said foul-mouthed Jade – who claims she is too stressed to sleep or eat – had already been turned down for a visa for the Asian nation several times .
One well-placed official told the Daily Star last night: “Jade’s trip was already in doubt because of the fuss it was going to cause – even before she slumped into her latest depression.
“Remember when the show was on, there were effigies being burned in the street.
"And in a country of one billion people, that’s a rather large hate-mob.
“Neither the Indian nor the British government wanted the international Celebrity Big Brother incident to escalate further.
“So both governments were keen to put a stop Jade’s planned trip to India. Her latest unstable behaviour – where she appears on the brink of a full-scale mental breakdown – have pretty much sealed her fate and stopped the trip from going ahead.”
Security arrangements would also pose a problem for her trip because she is having to be watched round the clock by minders after a string of death threats, the source added.
Blubbing Jade has been unable to stay more than one night in the same place since being evicted from the BB house.
She has also been left tearful after seeing footage of boyfriend Jack Tweed, 19, mocking her in the Channel 4 house following her eviction.
But yesterday he was apparently keen to make it up with her.
Following a trip to the shops, a friend drove Jack to The Priory in Roehampton, south-west London, to visit Jade.
Yesterday we revealed how experts say the Bermondsey motormouth should be locked away for six months or more for her own good, so she can deal with her demons properly.
They even suggested she had gone into the Priory purely as a PR stunt, and not to get help.
The former star of Big Brother 3 had already been forced into a grovelling apology on Indian telly.
That was a desperate bid to make up for her outrageous rants, including calling Shilpa, 31, “Shilpa Poppadom” and screaming at her in a row over an Oxo cube.
Tourism officials in Delhi have already made it clear Jade had not been invited as an official guest of the nation.
