 Jennette McCurdy says she was showered by her late mum until she was '17 or 18'. The iCarly actress, 31, has alleged she did not wash alone until her mother Debra McCurdy began battling cancer. Debra died of the disease aged 56 in 2013. Speaking in a new interview, Jennette said her mum would stay clothed while 'shampooing and conditioning' her hair and 'washing [her] body' – as well as examining her breasts and privates for signs of disease.

Jennette said the experiences left her feeling 'uncomfortable' and but that her mum became 'hysterical' when she brought up the issue.
