Biography

edit

Burshid was born in Manama, Bahrain, to Saudi parents. She studied media and public relations, but left school in 2008 to work at the Bahrain Radio and Television Corporation.[citation needed] She made her television hosting debut in the summer of 2009. She presented a reality show for Ramadan 2010, winning the "Most Beautiful Arab Broadcaster" award, and was one of the hosts of the Kuwaiti show Ali Al-Seif on Al-Adalah TV.[citation needed]

Her first acting role was in the 2012 Eid al-Fitr play Misbah Zain; her friend Shaila Sabt helped her to obtain the role. In 2018, she moved to Kuwait for work-related reasons.[4]

Illness and death

edit

In April 2019, Burshid's family revealed that she was sleeping excessively and did not remember her friends’ names. Tests conducted at the Bahrain Defence Force Hospital revealed three lymphomas in the left hemisphere of her brain. This required immediate surgery and her father appealed to the King of Bahrain for aid in obtaining quick treatment, a plea that gained support from activists and artists across the Gulf.[citation needed]

The Royal Court agreed to send her abroad for treatment, and the Health Ministry arranged for her travel to Germany.[5][6][7] However, her condition did not improve, and she died in Turkey on July 22, 2019.[8][9]
