Shilpa Shetty and Jade Goody may not have been on the best of terms when they were on the show 'Big Brother', but all of that changed shortly after the show ended. Shilpa Shetty and Jade Goody actually became very close friends. Shilpa Shetty even went to the U.K. in hopes of saying good-bye to her friend who was suffering from cervical cancer at the time.
Since her death, there have been many tributes paid to the ex-'Big Brother' star. But Shilpa Shetty says that her fallen friend has taught her a lot about life and about cancer. Shilpa Shetty recalled that just two short years ago they were bickering on television. She's glad that she patched up with Jade Goody and became good friends with her.
Jade Goody's untimely death taught Shilpa Shetty about how precious and unpredictable life really is. These are lessons that may have come in a difficult way, but Shilpa Shetty is grateful to her friend.
She recently wrote in her blog that "Jade put up a brave fight; lost her battle with cancer, but won many hearts with her courage and how she dealt with it. My heart sank on hearing the news, but in hindsight I was glad she wasn't in pain anymore and passed away peacefully in her sleep". Shilpa Shetty continued by saying "She truly has brought awareness for cervical cancer and I hope young women learn the importance of getting tests done regularly to diagnose any early symptoms."
It seems that out of this tragic death of a woman who had so much life left to live, that something good has come. Shilpa Shetty is forever grateful to Jade Goody for her friendship, the lessons she has taught her, and for the new awareness that she may not have had without her.
Jade Goody will truly be missed.
