ThisisBigBrother.com - UK TV Forums - Shilpa Shetty "shocked " by Goody news.

Shilpa Shetty has announced that she feels shocked and saddened after hearing that Jade Goody has just months to live.

The Bollywood star has been in regular contact with Goody since they were reunited on the Indian version of Big Brother in August. While Shetty hosted the programme, Jade was a contestant for a short period of time before pulling out when she was diagnosed with cervical cancer.

Last week, doctors told Goody that they could not save her life after the illness spread to her liver, bowel and groin.

"When I learned that she's got just a couple of months to live, I was shocked," Shetty explained. "I just hope a miracle takes place, at least for her children's sake."

Goody was accused of racially abusing the actress when they appeared together on Celebrity Big Brother in January 2007.

"I have forgiven and forgotten all that and have asked everyone else to do the same," Shetty insisted. "We kept in touch and called each other up sometimes. We were just getting to know each other and this happened. Nobody deserves to go through this pain. Nobody."

She added: "When I spoke to her on Sunday, she sounded strong and invited me for her marriage to her 21-year-old fiancé Jack Tweed. I don't know if I will be able to attend that but I am meeting her for sure.

"I want to reach out to her but I feel so helpless knowing that all my efforts will be in vain. I have been praying for her and her kids."
