Deirdre Kelly, better known as ‘White Dee’, came to public prominence in the Channel 4 documentary Benefits Street. Critics have vilified her as the “patron saint of drug addicts and dropouts”, whereas fans see her as a working-class hero. Dee is a single mother to a son and a daughter.
Until five years ago, Deirdre worked as an administrator for Birmingham City Council, until it was claimed she was being convicted of stealing to fund her then-partner’s drug abuse.
Since then Dee received benefits from the government after claiming she could not work due to suffering from depression.
Since the success of Benefits Street, Dee has received offers from all over the world for appearances in modelling, newspaper columns, cooking, holidays, as well as other television reality shows.
Recently Dee travelled to Magaluf. This resulted in David Cameron personally ordering a probe into her finances after she was photographed enjoying a boozy holiday, despite being ‘too depressed’ to work. Dee no longer claims benefits.

None of them are celebrity’s apart from Gary. Dee and Gary in the final :up:
Will she lose her benifits from doing bb? Lmao because if she does she can’t be on benifit stree anymore and that means she is no longer a celeb. Lmao why is she on bb?
:doh: @Babsarella
errrr on the launch night she did say she not claiming benefits now
people all over the world love dee and have contacted her for work
i wouldnt call her a celeb but i like her
Great girl ! Really down to earth ! One of the Nicest people in the house !
To the benifits comments , she’s not on benifits anymore and probably never will be in her life again , let’s see how quick you all are on the dhss when you loose your job in this crappy disfunctional country especially under Cameron #worstprimeministerinhistory next to john major in my book
shes not lazy as she obviously had a good job untill she made a stupid mistake all in the name of love , well that was a big mistake on her behalf which will probably haunt her for ever. i say good luck to her i hope she makes something better for herself and gets a better lifestyle out of her stint in bb
Didn’t think I would, but so far I love her!
Seems to be one of the kindest people in the house, which is much needed!
Seems to be a very understanding person and is very supportive of kellie Dee to win
Well, I’ve just read on a different site, that Dee had “words” with Gary, and stormed off. She’s not the “Mother Teresa” that we all thought she was. 😯
Nope thought she was wrong to block Audley from pressing button then blaming Gary for being a shit actor. She is too full of herself and really thinks she is on the same level as the real celebrities.
