Freddy Brazier breaks silence on relationship with dad Jeff amid his legal war with Jade Goody’s mum Jackiey

Jade Goody's ex Jeff Brazier launches legal bid to stop son Freddy from seeing gran

FREDDY Brazier has paid a sweet tribute to his father, Jeff, on Mother’s Day – as his dad prepares to wage a legal battle with his matriarchal grandmother.

The 20-year-old’s mother, Jade Goody, died from cervical cancer on Mother’s Day 2009 when Freddy was just four years old, and his brother, Bobby, was five.

Since then Jeff has dedicated his life to looking after his boys, including taking on Jade’s mother, Jackiey Budden, in a new legal battle to prevent her from seeing him.

On Sunday, as the UK paid tributes to mums everywhere, Freddy paid tribute to his mum with a collection of photographs on his Instagram Stories, simply writing: “Happy Mother’s Day”; on a collage of the family while Jade was still alive.

He then added a new picture of him and his dad, adding: “Forever grateful for you and all you do to me.”;

In the photo, the pair appear to be at a party together watching someone on a stage, with the pair looking away from the camera as Freddy tightly hugs his dad, with his arms around his neck and head on his shoulder.

The message is the first post Freddy has made about his dad since it became known Jeff is planning on putting a legal block from Jackiey seeing him any more.

Jeff is taking the drastic action on the grounds that Jackiey is having a “detrimental effect on Freddy’s wellbeing”.

A source close to the Brazier family has said of Jeff's decision: “This is something Jeff and anyone who cares about Freddy hopes will help keep Freddy safe from a relationship that has been incredibly detrimental to his well being for a long time now.

“The fact that he is going down this route shows how concerned we all our and how our efforts to keep Fred safe are being grossly undermined by other people.’’

Freddy regularly stays with gran Jackiey in South East London and has previously posted a video on TikTok of himself openly taking drugs at her flat in Bermondsey.

Recently Freddy also posted a video of her making a foul mouthed rant at him where she is quoted as saying; ‘’Do you hear me? Don’t f***ing do it no more, don’t Fred, Please don’t. Don’t f***ing talk to me like you talk outside, if that’s the case f*** off. Yeah f*** off.’’

Jeff has shown pictures of him taking Freddy to a meditation retreat in Essex, Freddy helping him train for an ultramarathon, and last year the pair appeared together on Celebrity Race Across The World.

Freddy said of his relationship with his Dad on the programme: “At times where I’ve pushed him away he has pulled even harder to pull me back in.

“I don’t think I praise my dad enough for everything he has done for me but he knows the love.”;

Freddy also said: “I lost my mum when I was four, and that was on Mother's Day, which is really hard. I don't really like showing my emotions.

“I don't even speak to my dad much about my mum either. I just avoid it. I prefer to bottle it up. I don't want to feel like I'm a burden to them.”

But Jackiey is hitting back, and despite Freddy previously sharing a video of him taking drugs at her home, she insists her house is safe and “always has been”.

“This is not fair,” she told the Daily Mail. “I’ve tried so hard with Jeff over the years, to keep the peace and to keep the family together and the boys close – I even send him a Christmas present every year, but he doesn’t appreciate it. He probably throws them in the bin.

“All these years, I’ve been the closest thing to their mum.”

“The boy is an adult now, and Jeff treats him like he’s ten,”; she added. “It made sense seven years ago when Freddy was still 13 when Jeff first tried to stop him from seeing me, but now he’s 20 years old.”

In a warning to Jeff, she claimed she could “ruin him if she wanted to” and accused him of “riding on” late daughter Jade's coattails.
