Nadia's mum jets into UK

Nadia's mother has flown into the UK for a surprise reunion with "the daughter she never had," The Sun reports today.

Kitchen worker Conceicao Almada, 49, will be waiting for Nadia at Friday's big final, bringing the pair face-to-face for the first time in over a year - before Nadia had the operation.

“Nadia will not expect to see me here in Britain," Conceicao told the newspaper. “She told Big Brother it would mean a lot to her if her family were there when she left the house. Whatever has happened I wanted to be there to support her.”
