Goody’s publicist Max Clifford confirmed that she does have cancer and said that the star was extremely frightened and upset.
Bigg Boss producers said that Jade Goody had left the house because of "medical reasons".
Goody had been tested earlier this month after she was taken ill and collapsed at her Essex home.
Goody had decided to take part in Bigg Boss to try and make good following accusations of racism towards Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty when they both appeared together on the British Celebrity Big Brother.
The Sun newspaper has reported that the scenes showing Jade Goody being told the bad news were not broadcast and will not be shown in India.
