Nadiya Hussain Quits Teaching Assistant Role to Prioritize Health
What Happened
Nadiya Hussain, the acclaimed star of The Great British Bake Off, has announced her resignation from her position as a teaching assistant. This decision follows the BBC’s cancellation of her cookery show last year, which left her at a career crossroads.
Why It Matters
Hussain, who gained fame after winning the sixth series of Bake Off in 2015, has expressed that the teaching role significantly impacted her health. In an emotional Instagram post, she described the decision to leave as one of the toughest she has ever made, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing her well-being. She stated, “Sometimes it’s OK to put yourself first,” highlighting the personal toll her job had taken on her.
What’s Next
Despite stepping away from teaching, Hussain has indicated that she is open to future opportunities in education, with aspirations to gain further training and potentially become a teacher. Following her departure from the BBC, she has received offers from other networks, including ITV and Channel 4, but has not yet committed to any new television projects.
