Now Jeff has opened up about why she might not have gone to the doctor sooner after having abnormal smear tests in the past.

He told the : "We were no longer together when she got ill so I don't know whether it was forgetfulness or fear that prevented her from getting help sooner.

"Jade was this amazing, larger-than-life character and she had so many wonderful qualities but organisation wasn't one of them."

Jade was given a diagnosis of cervical cancer in August 2008.

It was reportedly at an advanced stage and she had surgery and chemotherapy.

But by February 2009, it had spread to her liver, bowel and groin and she was told by doctors at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London that her condition was terminal.

While in hospital she was baptised alongside her sons and she also married her husband Jack Tweed.
