LADY Sovereign is hiding a secret heartache - her mum has less than a year to live.
Nicola Harman, 43, has a terminal brain tumour, is now bedridden and has trouble speaking, Sov's sister Chloe revealed last night.
And Chloe 25, told how it was their mother's brave battle that inspired Sov - real name Louise - to go on the show.
Chloe said: "Louise has gone into Big Brother to make Mum proud of her because she only has months to live.
"Mum's stuck in her bed now and finds it difficult to talk sometimes."
But seeing Sov on TV at her home in Kilburn, North London, brightens her day, Chloe revealed.
She said: "Mum has the telly on every night to watch Louise.
"Her face lights up when she sees her and you know she's thinking 'that's my girl'."It's a great comfort to her.
"It sounds silly but it really helps her get to know Louise better, because there she's just being herself and not having to react to Mum's illness."Mum looks forward to it - it's the one thing that brightens up her day.
"It's like it gives her a window on Louise's world, which hasn't been easy over the years as she's often been abroad."
Sov, 24, has a small fanbase in Britain but made her name as a rapper in the US, the Far East and Australia.
She would spend months away doing gigs supporting stars like Gwen Stefani and rap group D-12.
But, as we've revealed, the pressure of being away from her family and friends caused Sov to have an on-stage meltdown.
Chloe said: "Louise doesn't share her problems.
I took some comfort in the fact that she's always been a very strong person."
So much so that the younger Sov, would stick up for her sister.
Chloe said: "I was older, but it was her who would be looking after me. She would get into fights with people.Who let the dogs out ... the future rap star wrestles with two pets"She wasn't a bully or anything - it wasthe opposite."She would take on battles for people who were being picked on. She was always sticking up for something."Boys were afraid of her. She was tiny but she could pack a punch."It was her unruly behaviour that helped Sov break into music.
After repeatedly playing truant, she and Chloe were both packed off to a strict school for kids who struggled in normal classes.
Chloe recalled: "It was the making of Louise - because that's where she got into acting and performing.
"She was given a role in a film, about truancy of all things, and made a song for them.
"After that she just went headlong into music. She ended up in the States because everyone seemed to hate her here.
"I think they thought she was a bit chavvy, and because she was a girl people didn't like her rapping."
But she added that Sov's recent moody behaviour in the Big Brother house was down to her thinking about her mum.
Chloe said: "Sometimes on the live streaming she's just sitting there on her own and staring into space.
"I know she's thinking of Mum - and Mum knows it too when she sees her."

I feel that way too. Like if it was after she survived eviction, then ok, but just before... it seems like a ploy to get votes. Ok I don't want to appear heartltess, but even Heidi's story broke before she was nommed to go.

Trust The Sun Nathan.......I'm sure they'd been sitting on their hands and biting to print this. Guess they also believe a good chance Lady Chav is going.

Nah, Charlie made sure everyone in Britain knew about his mum by bringing it up every 2 seconds on the live feed - Sov hasn't said a word.

Call me an old cynic, but the timing smacks of pleading for the sympathy vote. What's she doing in there if her mum only has a year to live? Nothing would drag me away from my mother - I would want to spend every precious minute with her. Just another example of the selfish little chav that is Sov. Sooner she gets home the better, if the story is true.

The Sun
Hahahaa

[ILoveTRW]

last minute attempt for the sympathy vote

[Jackie]

Maybe true they were probably waiting on keeping this news until she was up for eviction hoping for a sympathy vote,may work but i want her out.

[Ninastar]

Aww I feel bad for her. the same thing happened to my friends mum when she was 5.

Aw, shucks! Go away with your sob stories. Only idiots will believe that garbage!

It is heartless that I just thought "oh here we go, Charlie wanting to win the money to buy his mother a HUGE alarm clock", I'm sure this isn't the same though

[Patrick]

All you haters are hating on a girl whos mother is dieing!
You sick bastards , vote to evict Heidi.. you know for her mother's sake eh?

[Ninastar]

Tis bollocks dear and most likely, since it is in the sun, false or flexible with the facts
