Jeff Brazier Reveals Son Freddie Sees Ghost Of Late Mother Jade Goody

Television presenter Jeff Brazier's son Freddie believes his has been visited by the ghost of his late mother Jade Goody.

Big Brother star Jade passed away from cervical cancer at the age of 27 in 2009 and This Morning presenter Jeff has been caring for children Freddie, 8, and Bobbie, 9, since.

Jeff recently visited Pluckley in Kent, which is believed to be the UK's most haunted village, as part of This Morning's Supernatural Week and the star spoke about Freddie's supernatural experience on the show.

He said: "My personal experiences have left me open-minded about the paranormal.

"Two days ago was probably the scariest experience of my life because Freddie had a case of night terrors... and he often says to me that he sees his mum in his room as well, so that all made for a pretty awkward night's sleep."

And this isn't the first time the brothers have suffered with nightmares as Jeff recently revealed to The Mirror he had replaced photos of their mother in their bedrooms after a series of bad dreams.

Speaking about Freddie, he said: "Fortunately, his nightmares have gone for now. I'm going to renew the photos of Mum in their rooms and hope that'll be it for a while, but if Fred's bad dreams do return, he'll know there's a cosy spot for him on the sofa, beside his dad ­and brother."

On their changing behaviour, he said: "I have recently seen a dip in the boys' behaviour. Fred is scared to go to bed because of the bad dreams he's been having, and the other day Bobby shouted at me, 'It's not easy not having a mum'. It's hard, but I know this phase will pass."

The star recently revealed he is making efforts to keep the children out of the spotlight since their mother passed as he believes they need a stable and calm upbringing.

"The boys needed time to recover, grow and to find their feet after the rug had been pulled from beneath them," he said. "I need to give them a balanced perspective on fame because there's a chance that when they reach 18, there could still be some media interest. Nervous times ahead for ­a protective father.

"When it comes to kids, the vital work is done in their early years. If me and the boys maintain a close relationship, we will be able to communicate our way through every potential hazard, be it girlfriends, exams or large offers from glossy mags for photos."

(Or can it possibly be just good timing by Jade?)

the word "wise" doesn't come into this.

"The star recently revealed he is making efforts to keep the children out of the spotlight since their mother passed as he believes they need a stable and calm upbringing"

And this interview furthers that goal... how?
04:02 PM on 02/08/2012
HisScaliness. Am I missing something here, who. or where is the "star", you mention, ?
I'm guessing its somebody trying to get some free publicity for whatever reason.
04:17 PM on 02/08/2012
I'm quoting verbatim from the article that we are discussing.

And I wonder how giving this interview promotes Jeff Brazier's stated aim.

A guy with a level head and a heart - those kids could do no better other than to have their mother back - There is a perfect girl out there Jeff for both you and your boys - open the door just a little

poor little loves.. i hope their dad can lead them to understand that their mum isn't truly gone and that's not a scary thing. she loved them fiercely and is making sure they're alright. i remember seeing my grandad nearly every night for about a month after he passed. i was 11 then and it was a little frightening. i think he was just checking on me. jeff appears to be an amazing father and i think the 3 of them will be just fine. let's hope in the future he will meet a lovely woman.

she'll be cursing indians in heaven now...
06:55 PM on 02/07/2012
I hope he gets together with a caring girl who will give his boys hugs..isn't it heart breaking to think of motherless children anywhere?
06:41 PM on 02/07/2012
YER RIGHT !!!!!!!!!!... HOW MUCH WILL YOU MAKE FROM THIS ****.
07:21 PM on 02/07/2012

who cares if he does make money from it? it's all for the boys. jade sold countless stories before she passed and as a result, her boys have a solid future ahead of them. but do you really think he would lie about his son having night terrors? he's never done anything before to lead the public to question his integrity..

fair comment but he should leave his children out of the public eye to avoid such criticism
