I have never gone on one of these, unless I did drunk as I was last night

In seriousness, just to lend some support and say that I sorely miss her and her attitude and more so her laughing. Good Luck to you Nadia and my admiration for being true to yourself.

Just caught up on Nadia's return to Loose Women, thought she was brilliant with what she was given to work with.

Really liked how she expressed in response that all she could do was follow her heart in there and do what she thought was right from moment to moment, and she wouldn't change anything. Good to see her talk again about she doesn't support or believe anyone deserves bullying, mob mentality, social isolation but i felt they cut her a bit short on that... in my view that deserved a much greater focus and talking point then what was given.

She has nothing to apologize for, or be ashamed of in my opinion... and so i'm glad she didn't give in to her critics and those against her with apologies or accepting that view against her as the singular view but instead took the position that she accepts that side of things, that there's going to be criticism and judgement but she followed her heart and did what she felt was right, and wouldn't change anything she did, etc.

Such an awesome, strong, independent, elegant, humorous, virtuous (relatively), attractive person.

The light definitely shines bright from within her.

[Which, i guess in this new Big Brother isn't something to be praised or connected to... sadly]

If i'm ever out in the world and find myself in a less than ideal situation, i'd count myself fortunate and appreciative to have someone like Nadia there.

I only saw the last 15 mins., or so. Nadia did say she could hardly sleep with the stress in the house bless her. Love Nadia she was wonderful.

She even was dealing with inner conflict that she might not have a job to return to but still remained true to what she felt was right, on top of everything else she was dealing with.. all the stress and responsibility, peer pressure and the burden on her, etc.

I don't doubt for a second the happiness she expresses in being out of there.

She wasn't really given much to work with in the segment, it wasn't so much of an amazing piece of television or extremely insightful... but it was more the spirit and elegance in which she handled it all and continuing to remain true to herself that impressed/moved me.

I think, had she not been sidelined in supporting Perez, she might well have been. She was not really given the chance to shine in her own light there...just a brief 2 days (when Perez was in the hideaway) and HMs were starting to warm to her.

Lovely instagram post by Perez regarding Nadia
http://instagram.com/p/yubW8ioao0/?modal=true
"Friends are important, but this brilliant woman with a huge heart and talent and wit and charm is much more than that to me. She is family! Family is forever! Her kindness is inspiring and saved me during my time in the Celebrity Big Brother house. Words can not do justice to how amazing she is to me. She's more amazing than Oprah! And you know I wouldn't say that if I didn't mean it! Thanks just doesn't cut it for her. She has that and my heart! Always! I love you #NadiaSawalha!"
I thought it very well said as well in his Loose Women interview referencing that he was sad with the world when someone like Nadia was being torn down for being nice and kind. Couldn't agree more with that sentiment.

Thanks for sharing this. It is reassuring that there are many that can see Nadia for who she is i.e. with good intentions. It is unfortunate that her attempts to dispel conflict in the house (hence get involved) were seen as interfering.

Hi I agree with you and it , seemingly, was initiated by others who were so negative in the house it was heartrending at times. However thank goodness for the lovely Instagram Perez sent t o Nadia calling her family and then say she was meant more to him than Ophra bless.

Loved Nadia and wanted her to win but also knew she had no chance because of the public perception. Sad really

Nadia and Perez will be the only lasting meaningful friendship outside the house which says a lot really about the other people and their intentions.

Totally agree with this and so glad that Perez shared his feelings with how wonderful Nadia was to him in the house to her own detriment and the others ostracising her too! Thank goodness that we still have amazing, kind, generouse and selfless people in our country today like Nadia. She was my winner of CBB and she has nothing to feel sorry or bad about, as she is a truly beautiful person, inside and out!

Hi originally Nadia was the only reason I wanted to watch CBB this year. I think she such a talented person and as you say a lovely person.......she was also my favourite to win too.

I watched it because of Perez, and though indifferent to her before CBB, came to see how impressive she was as a person due to her mature and principled stance. Loved to see the genuine friendship she developed with Perez.

I was totally indifferent to all the housemates before CBB, especially Nadia. (I can remember nearly running her over & she giving me 'a not to happy about this situation look', but that's another story). So we've form. But she came across (in CBB) as a nice, genuine, loyal & somebody I would love to have in my corner if everything went 'tits up'.

Just seen Perez's pictures with his little boy.
