Susan Boyle 'feeling the strain' from fame

The singer, who suffered a public meltdown after last year’s Britain’s Got Talent final, is feeling exhausted from fame, said her brother Gerry.

And her other brother, John, said: ‘She needs 24-hour care.’

The warnings came after the spinster’s home in Blackburn, Scotland, was broken into. Since then, friends have been trying to raise her spirits.

‘Susan stayed with me a week ago. Night time is a lonely time for her,’ said chum Lorraine Campbell. But Subo, 48, insists she’s fine. ‘I’m not the scared person I used to be,’ she told a US TV show last week.
