Reality TV star Jade Goody broke down in tears last night as she arrived back in the UK after being diagnosed with cancer.

Goody, 27, learned she had cervical cancer while appearing in Bigg Boss - the Indian version of Big Brother.

The mother of two flew into London's Heathrow Airport after a seven-hour flight from Mumbai, India.

Looking tired and drained the visibly upset Goody told airport personnel escorting her through the terminal: "I don't want any more I can't do this."

She broke down in tears as she was met by a number of photographers and left the airport through a private exit.

Goody, wearing a black polo neck, was driven from the airport in a large silver people carrier.

An airport source said: "She seemed OK as she got off the plane, but as she was walking through the terminal she just broke down. She seemed really upset."

Goody's plane touched down at around 8.30pm following a delay of almost two hours.

Earlier yesterday her publicist Max Clifford confirmed that she had been diagnosed with cancer.

She has returned to the UK for more tests and treatment.

After receiving the diagnosis in a private phonecall from her UK doctor while in the diary room of the Bigg Boss house, the devastated single mother broke the news to her fellow housemates.

Millions of TV viewers in India were expected to watch the scenes when they were broadcast.
