Big Brother 5 star Becki Seddiki reveals she's been diagnosed with Leukemia

Big Brother star Becki Seddiki has revealed she is battling Leukemia. 

The singer, who appeared on 2004’s fifth season of the reality show, has been chronicling her health battle on TikTok since being diagnosed last month.

In a series of videos, she explained that after routine blood tests were undertaken to explain her ailing health, she discovered she was fighting Leukemia and has since shaved her head ahead of her hair falling out alone. 

She revealed she had been driven to the check up after fighting with addiction to recreational drugs, which led her to Narcotics Anonymous.

In her first video about her diagnosis, the shocked reality star explained to her followers: ‘I just had some routine blood tests.

‘I told my GP I needed a clean bill of health because of self medicating on recreational drugs for so long and I realised I was an addict and went to some NA meetings and had been clean for 40 days.

‘And today I get this diagnosis. It explains a lot, it explains why I have been feeling tired, why my hair has been falling out. I am hopefully going to get better and I will keep a record of it.’

In her most recent video, she revealed she was shaving her head before her hair fell out itself, as she said in a video taken from a hospital bed: ‘Diagnosis Leukaemia so my action was to shave my hair before I had no choice’.

Becki shot to fame alongside show legends including Michelle Bass and eventual winner of the show Nadia Almada.

She was a late addition to the house, entering on Day 31 before being evicted on Day 43 she received 62% of the vote. She was the first ever housemate to be made to choose one housemate to automatically face the public vote.

This was delivered in the form of ‘The Judas Kiss’, which she issued to Michelle. 

Following her appearance on the show, she was disowned by her family, with her devout Muslim father Ahmed Seddiki publicly renouncing his daughter when she was on the show due to her raucous antics.

At the time, he said: ‘I don’t want to talk about her or to her ever again. She is not my daughter now. She is just too crazy. People are very angry about this. They can’t believe a Muslim girl is behaving in this way.’

His words came after she made a slew of steamy sex confessions, revealing at the time: ‘I need to relieve my pent up frustration. I’m looking forward to it. It’s true that people who talk about it a lot don’t get it enough.’

She went on to scoop a twice weekly radio slot on a station in London from 2006 onwards and is listed on her Instagram page as a singer/songwriter.   

Honest:  She said: ‘And today I get this diagnosis. It explains a lot, it explains why I have been feeling tired, why my hair has been falling out. I am hopefully going to get better and I will keep a record of it’
