Famous Women Who Battled Gynecological Cancers
Jade Goody
Jade Goody rose to fame in the U.K. by starring in several reality shows. The English star became infamous after she was kicked off of “Celebrity Big Brother 5” for racially bullying Indian actress Shilpa Shetty. In 2008, Goody began filming India’s version of “Big Brother” but she was forced to leave the show early after she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Despite her courageous and public battle with the disease, soon the cancer was spreading throughout Goody’s body. She lost her battle in March 2009, exactly one month after marrying her “Celebrity Big Brother” castmate Jack Tweed.
