Jade tells of her slim pill hell

JADE Goody tells Sir Trevor McDonald of her weight battle in a Tonight special on slimming pills.
Jade, who has piled on the pounds since this year’s Celeb Big Brother bullying row, explains how she became addicted.

Jade, 26, was dubbed Miss Piggy after finding fame on BB in 2002.

Then she dropped two dress sizes and made a fitness video, netting £130,000.

But she got hooked on diet pills she believes contained amphetamine, once mixing them with absinthe at a kids’ party.

A source said: “Jade has had a testing year and put on weight again after suffering a miscarriage, break-up and the race row.

“She’s very honest with Sir Trevor about her weight battle but she makes it very clear she has not gone back on the slimming pills.”

Jade says: “I’ve done so much damage to my body through taking the pills and making myself sick.

“I’ve gone down that road and don’t want to go back.”

ITV1 will screen the interview next month.
