Jameela Jamil ‘guarantees Zeta-Jones’ bipolar disorder is menopause’
April 15th, 2011 - 7:20 pm ICT by ANILondon, April 15 (ANI): T4 presenter Jameela Jamil has sparked controversy after she commented that Catherine Zeta-Jones, who was admitted to a psychiatric hospital, was simply suffering from menopause.
“Catherine Zeta-Jones has just been admitted to rehab for bipolar disorder. I GUARANTEE it’s just the menopause! Makes 40+ crazy,” the Daily Mail quoted her as tweeting.
Following her comments Jamil received a backlash from followers and later deleted the tweets.
But despite removing her posts from the site, the 25-year-old stood by her comments.
“OK bur I’m actually probably right in this instance as any woman who suddenly develops bipolar in her mid 40s usually suffering menopause (sic),” she wrote.
“None the less I shall remove comment. I would never disrespect mental illness, I was purely speculating about her hormones,” she added. (ANI)
