Charice's grandmother confirmed the news

Charice, a former Glee star and international singer, reportedly tried to kill herself due to bullying and financial problems.

In an interview with Showbiz Police, Charice's grandmother Mrs Teresita Relucio explained that the singer had been dealing with a lot of stress financially after being written off of the US hit TV show Glee.

Since leaving the show, Charice has suffered with bullying for the way she dresses and her sexual orientation. Charice reportedly attempted suicide by cutting her wrists, but is yet to make a statement surrounding her problems.
