Breakdown for Celeb bully Jo (press report and discussion)

BBreakdown for Celeb bully Jo
SHAMED Big Brother star Jo O’Meara was last night being cared for by psychiatrists — after breaking down on TV.
The former S Club singer, 27, is receiving round-the-clock private medical care at her hotel hideaway.
She is too fragile to be moved to a specialist clinic.
Jo, who was branded a bully after rows in the BB house, shocked millions of viewers yesterday with a shambolic appearance on GMTV.
The shaking star said her life had been ruined by allegations of racist bullying towards Bollywood beauty Shilpa Shetty.
She admitted she has been unable to return to her Essex home after receiving three death threats.
Jo was being treated at a country hotel last night. Advisers had thought about moving her to the Priory clinic in South West London, but a source said: “Jo is in no state to go anywhere. She has round-the-clock doctors, psychiatrists and nurses to care for her. We are very worried — she’s absolutely broken.”
The Duchess of York yesterday offered her support to Jo after seeing her crumble on GMTV.
Fergie said: “I know what it’s like to be vilified. She is a broken girl. She should be removed from the stocks.”
And fellow BB housemate Jermaine Jackson, 52, also offered to help Jo — by giving her one of his songs to relaunch her career.
He said: “I told her I have a song I wanted to present to her. I’m going to do it.”
During the GMTV interview Jo sobbed as she claimed her behaviour towards Shilpa, 31, had been “taken out of context”.
She slammed Channel 4 bosses, saying the show had “ruined my life”. She added: “I don’t think I bullied Shilpa. Everybody makes mistakes but not everybody does it on TV.”
Jo said she only took part in BB because her home was under threat of repossession and she needed the cash.
