Former Big Brother star Jade Goody has been taken to hospital after collapsing on the set of Five's Back To Reality.

Goody is being treated for abdominal pains after blacking out in the bathroom of the studio-based mansion where the show is being filmed.

The 23-year-old's collapse was seen by viewers of the reality programme.

The show pits veterans of past reality shows against each other, with Pop Idol's Rik Waller and Big Brother I winner Craig Phillips still competing.

"They are running some more tests this morning... I think she's fairly comfortable," a show spokeswoman said.

"Her boyfriend, Jeff Brazier, father of their baby Bobby, has left the site. He was summoned immediately to the studio and has left with her in an ambulance," a spokesman said earlier.

"She recovered after collapsing but the show's producers were concerned and called emergency services."

Other celebrities still in the house include Josie D'Arby, James Hewitt and Maureen Rees.
