Jade Goody is aggressive, mannerless and obnoxious, Shilpa Shetty has told Sky News in a world exclusive interview.

She has been speaking about her time on Celebrity Big Brother and lifting the lid on all the other housemates.

Shilpa refused to say the treatment she received by a number of housemates was racist - but admitted it was bullying.

“I think it stemmed from jealousy and insecurity but it definitely wasn’t contrived racism,” she said of Jade’s behaviour.

On her love life, Shilpa gave hope to many of her male fans when she was asked if she would consider marrying a white man.

Shilpa with Kay Burley Quoting a Hindi phrase, she said: “You don’t decide to fall in love with someone, it just happens.”

Only a chosen few are being allowed to interview the Bollywood star - and Sky News presenter Kay Burley is one of them.

Shilpa went out in public for the first time yesterday and said the reception she got from the public was “very very warm and welcoming”.

“I expected just the Asians to welcome me and be proud of me, I expected that. But the British audience and public showed me so much love.

“I feel so honoured and so loved.”
