The Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says she has left her teaching assistant role, which she took up after the cancellation of her BBC shows.
The chef, 40, won the sixth series of the baking competition in 2015. She became a fixture on the broadcaster’s schedules after her triumph, but her shows, including Nadiya’s British Food Adventure, were axed.
Hussain previously told Woman & Home that she later got a job as a teaching assistant in a primary school.
In an update on Monday (23 February), Hussain explained that she was unable to recover from exposure to illnesses in a classroom environment due to her weakened immune system.
She added that she stepped back from the role after three months, which was “one of the toughest decisions she’s ever had to make.”
