Following the death of Naddel, a Big Brother and I’m A Celebrity star, her cause of death has been revealed.
Nadja Abd el Farrag, better known to millions of Germans as Naddel, passed away in a Hamburg clinic on May 9, though her death was only made public days later.
Naddel, 60, was a staple of German pop culture, remembered not just for her chart-topping affiliations but also her rollercoaster journey through fame, health battles, and public scrutiny.
From starring in Germany’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and Celebrity Big Brother to gracing the covers of Playboy and hosting Peep on RTL2, she was never far from the spotlight.
Fans, friends, and former collaborators have flooded social media with tributes. One wrote: “Rest in peace, Nadja #naddel #RIP In my youth, you dominated the daily news about high society. Then came a rapid rollercoaster ride with ups and downs. Passing away at 60 is a truly tragic thing! She had to go through a lot in her much too short life – R.I.P. ‘Naddel’.”
