Jeff Brazier’s heartbreaking tweet about dealing with Jade Goody’s death anniversary and Mother’s Day in the same week
The star revealed the two difficult days have been a "cruel blow" for his sons
JEFF Brazier has revealed his sons have been dealt a "cruel blow" after having the anniversary of their mum Jade Goody's death fall in the same week as Mother's Day.
The star shared a heartbreaking message with fans on Twitter today, revealing his relief that the week is over.
He wrote: "Glad last week's over. I try & reduce the impact but having Jades anniversary & Mother's Day in the same week is a cruel blow for the boys."
Fans immediately sent their support to the family, as one wrote: "I felt the burden ease as well today. It can be a tough day for a lot of people. Your doing a great job with those boys though."
While another added: "Love to the boys xx."
Jade lost her battle with cancer in March 2009 when she was 29-years-old, and had sons Freddie, 12, and Bobby, 13, with her former partner Jeff.

The pair remained close following their split, and Jade later moved on and married Jack Tweed just a month before her tragic death.
Jade would often be photographed with her adorable sons at film premieres, on fun family days out and for glossy magazine shoots, where she gushed about them in accompanying interviews.
Since her passing, Jeff has raised them out of the media spotlight, and flew them to Australia to keep them out of the public eye.
Fiercely protective of his brood, Jeff has continued to shield them from the spotlight - but has in recent weeks shared candid photographs of their home life with his 51,000 Instagram followers.
Meanwhile Jack remembered his late wife on the eighth anniversary of her death in a heartfelt tribute.
The star shared a photo of the couple together, before urging fans to honour her memory and get tested for cervical cancer.
The pair are pictured laughing to the camera in the sweet photo, taken before Jade was diagnosed with cancer.
Jack captioned it: "5th June, 1981 - 22nd march, 2009 #RememberJade #rip #smeartest."
