Speaking to , Jeff explained: "Their favourite memory is sadly one that I wasn't a part of, but irrespective it was a very wonderful, heroic memory for them.

"They were in Trinidad and Tobago and somehow she put out a fire. They recall it very fondly how Mummy was very quick to react to the fact that something was on fire and that she put it out."

He continued: "They were young and very impressionable at the time and just thought that was the most incredible thing. They thought "Wow, my Mum's a lifesaver, she's a firefighter!

"That's a wonderful memory. That's probably their most valued memory. I'm gonna take them there one day and it will feel special because it was a place that's very special to their Mum."

Jeff recently revealed that he's got a secret locked drawer of Jade memorabilia that isn't suitable for his sons just yet.

Speaking to Woman's Own, Jeff revealed he and the boys make an effort to remember Jade all the time.

The dad-of-two, who recently revealed he's planned on proposing to his girlfriend of three years Kate Dwyer, said the boys "miss their mum most when things aren't going well for them".

"That's the gut-wrenching thing about bereavement. It's just an indisputable fact that their lives would be so much better if Jade was here," he continued.

"We have Mum's Day once a month, where we do a big activity and dedicate it to Jade.

"It's my job to keep their account of memories of their mum topped up.

"Not all the stories about Jade are suitable - some magazines are in a drawer that will be available to them as adults if they should wish to view them."

Jeff retrained as a life coach following Jade's death and regularly appears on television to help others.
