Celebrities and IBD

It is not just normal people like you and me who suffer from these horrible illnesses but also Famous People as well.  I have found many Famous People since my diagnosis in 2013 who also suffer from Crohn's Disease or Ulcerative Colitis.  Many have become ambassadors of the Crohn's and Colitis charity in the UK.
