Celebrity Big Brother: Friends fear Natalie Cassidy will struggle

Big Brother 2012

Friends of Celebrity Big Brother housemate Natalie Cassidy fear that the former soap star may struggle with the pressures in the house.

The ex-Eastender actress, who played Sonia in the BBC One series, is rumoured to be among 12 celebrities entering the house on Thursday.

However after a tough year and a rough break up from her fiancé, pals fear the 28-year-old could crack.

One told the Daily Star Sunday this week: “Natalie has had a difficult year with her ex-fiancé appearing in court for assaulting her and dealing with the break-up. So she could find three weeks in the house difficult and crack up.”

Others set to enter the show this year include Ruby Wax and Loose Woman Denise Welch.
