Terminally ill reality TV star Jade Goody has been admitted to hospital for more surgery to relieve "awful pain", her publicist Max Clifford has said.
The 27-year-old former Big Brother contestant returned to the Royal Marsden Hospital, in south-west London, on Sunday evening.
She had spent the day in agony at an Essex hospice, said Mr Clifford.
The mother-of-two has only weeks to live after her cervical cancer spread to her liver, groin and bowel.
Clifford said he had had a "very emotional" phone call with Goody, who was first diagnosed with cancer last year.
"She has a great deal of pain from her tummy and they don't seem to be able to get it under control," he said.
Goody had been expected to return home from St Clare Hospice, in Hastingwood, Essex, on Monday.
But Mr Clifford said doctors had explained that surgery was likely to be the best option.
"I think it's just to get her out of this awful pain that she is in," said Mr Clifford.
He added: "It's a continuing process but we hope they will be able to get things under control. She wants to go home. She doesn't want to be in hospital.
"She's very frightened. She was sobbing on the phone to me. She said: 'Why can't they get me out of all this pain?' Hopefully that's what they're going to do."
Goody is due to be christened next Saturday at a church close to her home with her sons, Bobby, five, and Freddie, four.
She also plans to record a television interview with Piers Morgan for ITV early next week, Mr Clifford said.
