Nadiya Hussain steps down from new job outside of showbiz due to health concerns

Nadiya Hussain left her primary school teaching assistant role after three months due to fibromyalgia worsening in the school environment, impacting her health and performance.

  • Nadiya Hussain has stepped down from her role as a primary school teaching assistant after roughly three months due to health concerns, revealed in a recent Instagram update.
  • After the BBC decided not to commission her show, Nadiya applied for and accepted a primary school TA role to shift away from screen work.
  • She lives with fibromyalgia, and frequent coughs and colds in the school setting worsened her health, affecting her mental wellbeing and forcing her to step away.
  • She plans to keep publishing cookbooks, and although broadcasters such as ITV and Channel 4 had been in contact, she decided TV projects were not for her then, focusing instead on future teacher training.
  • The school acknowledged her contribution and the primary school's newsletter called her a valued team member, while Lisa Faulkner and TV doctor Dr Amir Khan offered support, and Nadiya said the experience made her better for it though she remained sad.
