Nikki Grahame was the author of the book Fragile: A Heartbreaking Story of a Lifelong Battle with Anorexia. Between eight and nineteen years old, Nikki was in and out of hospitals and institutions as she battled with anorexia nervosa. Nikki's time as a contestant in Big Brother 7 made her a household name and, after leaving the house, she established a career in the media. Nikki devoted much of her spare time to increasing awareness of eating disorders, and hoped that by sharing her life story, she would help others too.
