Big Brother’s Shilpa Shetty has thanked Tony Blair for his support during a meeting at the Houses of Parliament.
The Bollywood actress watched prime minister’s questions in the Commons before meeting Mr Blair afterwards and declaring: “He was very sweet.”
She was invited by Labour MP Keith Vaz, who was among those who criticised the TV show after Ms Shetty’s treatment by other contestants caused a race row.
She said she had thanked the PM for his support “to me and my country”.
Her visit attracted widespread media attention - she was greeted on arrival at Parliament by a media scrum, including 23 reporters from India.
