It was claimed that the starlet had been overcome with worry that her battle with mental health would be uncovered.
Jody revealed to The Mail Online: “I would beg her to change jobs and leave showbiz but she never would, life would have been easier but she wasn’t built for an easy life.
“She was always scared she’d be ridiculed, she was terrified to admit her mental health struggles.”
